Speed of Light Reduced in Free Space
EDINBURGH, Scotland, Jan. 29, 2015 — Passing a light beam through an optical mask can give its photons a transverse spatial structure that reduces their speed. Researchers from Heriot-Watt University and the University of Glasgow have reported delaying single photons by several microns over a distance of one meter. An unaltered beam was used for comparison. The experiments were conducted using both Gaussian and Bessel beams. The phenomenon is different from the slowing effect of light passing through media such as
