Solid light, or hard light, is a hypothetical material consisting of light in a solidified state.
It has been theorized that solid light could exist.[1][2] Some experiments claim to have created solid photonic matter or molecules by inducing strong interaction between photons.[3][4][5] Potential applications of solid light could include logic gates for quantum computers[4] and room-temperature superconductor development.[3]
