Quantum technologies, devices that work by leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could outperform classical technologies in some fields and settings. The so-called spin (i.e., intrinsic angular momentum) carried by quantum ...
The internet, social media, and digital technologies have completely transformed the way we establish commercial, personal and professional relationships. At its core, this society relies on the exchange of information that ...
Optical microscopy is a key technique for understanding dynamic biological processes in cells, but observing these high-speed cellular dynamics accurately, at high spatial resolution, has long been a formidable task.
A highly sensitive quantum sensor from Jena has traveled nearly 9,000 kilometers: by truck to Hamburg, by ship across the Atlantic, and finally overland to Vassouras, Brazil.
Researchers at the University of Innsbruck have created a system in which individual qubits鈥攕tored in trapped calcium ions鈥攁re each entangled with separate photons. Demonstrating this method for a register of up to 10 ...
Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD), in collaboration with international partners, have developed momentum-resolved Floquet optical selection rules. They show how these ...
A team of physicists at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem has made a breakthrough that could bring secure quantum communication closer to everyday use鈥攚ithout needing flawless hardware.
Scientists have long speculated that polaritons鈥攈ybrids of light and matter鈥攃ould be harnessed to control photochemistry. Now, researchers at the City University of New York (CUNY) have shown that these fleeting states ...
Polaritons are formed by the strong coupling of light and matter. When they mix together, all the matter is excited simultaneously鈥攔eferred to as delocalization. This delocalization has the unique ability to relay energy ...
A research team has developed upconversion nanoparticles to assist in powering molecular motors. The nanoparticles can convert near-infrared radiation, which is capable of penetrating bulk material, into blue or UV light ...
