Optical structures based on the Smith hat produced unusual light patterns that reflected their lack of mirror symmetry and changed with light direction and polarization. The Smith hat first drew global attention in 2023 because a single tile could cover an entire surface without ever creating a repeating pattern. Now, the same unusual geometry has [...] New Twist on the Einstein Problem Reveals Unexpected Physics
