Twisted pair
A twisted pair is a transmission line of two insulated wires wound around each other, invented for telephony and still used for telephone lines and local area networks.
Twisted photonic crystals
Twisted photonic crystals are artificial optical structures in which patterned dielectric layers are stacked with a rotation angle, forming moiré superlattices that slow light and tune filters, nanolasers, and beam steerers.
