Researchers create a one -dimensional gas out of light.

This has enabled them to test theoretical predictions about the transition into this exotic state of matter for the first time.

The method used in the experiment by the researchers could be used for examining quantum effects.

The results have been published in the journal Nature Physics .

By making tiny changes to the polymer structures, it will now be possible to investigate phenomena that occur at the transition between different dimensionalities in great detail.

This is still considered basic research at the moment but it is possible that it could open up new areas of application for quantum optical effects.
