The refractive index of a vacuum is 1.0, and air is a tiny fraction greater than 1.0. The higher the index, the slower the speed of light through the medium, ...
The team found that the material achieves its peak refractive index of 38.6 at frequencies near 0.3 THz. The value drops away at other frequencies, but the refractive index remains above 20 for ...

Researchers report the development of ultrahigh refractive index metamaterials which are integrated with a low refractive index polymer producing distributed Bragg reflector (DBR). The highest ...
Refractive index profile. Figure 1 shows ray passage through the equatorial plane of a porcine lens taken for 633nm and 532 nm light.While the sagittal plane is the one relevant to the path of ...
Guiding light (expand for full image) Physicists at Harvard University in the US have built a silicon waveguide that exhibits a refractive index of, or close to, zero when operating at near-infrared ...
RI = zero. The Nature Photonics paper explains what happens when a material’s refractive index is reduced to zero: "There is no phase advance, meaning light no longer behaves as a moving wave, ...
