Hyperuniformity

About Hyperuniformity:

• It is a property of certain heterogeneous media in which density fluctuations in the long-wavelength range decay to zero.
• Hyperuniform disordered materials have been observed in a variety of settings, such as in quasicrystals, large-scale structures of the universe, soft and biological emulsions and colloids, etc. 
• Feature: One of the most striking characteristics of such a state is that mass fluctuations are greatly suppressed as the system size grows.
• Applications:
• Hyperuniform materials have distinctive characteristics that could have technological or biological applications.
• The mechanism of hyperuniformity could be used to control various physiological functions in cells, and energy-efficient photonic devices (such as photonic band-gap materials)
• It could be used for optical data transmission and communications.
