Researchers have found that 2D materials can self-form microscopic cavities that trap light and electrons, altering their quantum behavior. With a miniaturized terahertz spectroscope, the team observed standing light-matter waves without needing mirrors. This unexpected discovery offers a new method to manipulate exotic quantum states and design materials with tailored properties.
