Stanford physicists have engineered a sophisticated optical cavity capable of harvesting single photons from individual atoms ...
A breakthrough optical design allows quantum computers to read information in parallel, a key step toward building ...
Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) have theoretically demonstrated that photons trapped inside an optical cavity carry detailed information about a ...
A new way of capturing light from atoms could finally unlock ultra-powerful, million-qubit quantum computers. After decades of effort, researchers may finally be closing in on a practical path toward ...
Dark matter is a mysterious type of matter that does not emit, absorb, or reflect light, yet is predicted to account for most of the universe's mass. While physicists have gathered extensive indirect ...
Helium-neon lasers may be little more than glorified neon signs, but there’s just something about that glowing glass tube that makes the whole process of stimulated emission easier to understand. But ...
The UK’s National Physical Laboratory (NPL) is working in collaboration with the European Space Agency’s Navigation Innovation Support Programme (NAVISP) and the UK Space Agency (UKSA) to develop the ...
A novel technique for enhancing optical spring that utilizes the Kerr effect to improve the sensitivity of gravitational wave detectors (GWDs) has recently been developed. This innovative design uses ...
