In the classical world, a beam of light is a smooth, continuous wave. In the quantum realm, however, photons manifest as the discrete constituents (quanta) of light. These photons can be carefully ...

A tiny device that entangles light and electrons without super-cooling could revolutionize quantum tech in cryptography, computing, and AI. Present-day quantum computers are big, expensive, and ...

Scientists have achieved a breakthrough in light manipulation by using topological insulators to generate both even and odd terahertz frequencies through high-order harmonic generation (HHG). By ...

University of Illinois Physics Professor Paul Kwiat and members of his research group have developed a new tool for precision measurement at the nanometer scale in scenarios where background noise and ...

Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) exhibit exceptional properties of narrow-band emission, tunable luminescent wavelength, high luminous efficiency, and remarkable material stability across the visible and ...

Quantum information storage is a cornerstone technology for the emerging quantum internet and quantum computation. While current quantum communication networks face fundamental limitations due to ...

Physicists are exploring a quantum-mechanical approach to making smaller radio wave detectors. Physicists have created a new type of radar that could help improve underground imaging, using a cloud of ...
