The Scitech, Monthly magazine coverage on the news item "Interaction between light and molecules can power optical devices" authored by Rajalaxmi Sahoo etal.

The Scitech, a monthly magazine has covered the news item which appeared recently in the DST website with the title “Interaction between light and molecules can power optical devices”. The magazine covers the latest important events in the areas of Science and Technology across the globe. The research team involving Rajalaxmi Sahoo, D.S. Shankar Rao, U.S. Hiremath, C.V. Yelamaggad, and S.KrishnaPrasad have discovered that UV and blue light combination switches the system back and forth between 3D and 1D photonic structures, with the change being instantaneous (less than few tens of a second) causing variation of photonic wavelength over 100 nanometre.
