Researchers demonstrate that by shaping the spatial and temporal structure of photons, they can engineer customized quantum ...

University of Iowa researchers have modeled how to create more efficient, secure, and scalable quantum technologies through ...

For a future quantum internet to work, scientists need to perfect a quantum repeater that can send information over long ...

Physicists successfully teleport quantum information between photons from different sources, a key step towards a secure ...

Researchers from the School of Physics at Wits University, working with collaborators from the Universitat Autònoma de ...

Photons, for centuries both a puzzle and a tool, continue to help scientists illuminate nature at the smallest and largest ...

Photons, the elementary particles that make up light, are known to be fast, weightless and to not interact with each other. But in new experiments, physicists at MIT and Harvard have now created a new ...

For the first time, scientists have watched groups of three photons interacting and effectively producing a new form of light. In results published in Science, researchers suggest that this new light ...

Using photonic chips to control single photons in waveguides is a promising route to technologies based on the photons'quantum properties. The ability to measure entanglement on such chips is a key ...

Up until the mid-20 th century, light was pretty ordinary. Yes, it was both a particle and a wave, but it didn’t do anything very weird. Then scientists, under-employed after the end of World War II, ...

Seven billion years ago, three cosmic travelers set out together on an epic journey to Earth. They've just arrived, and they bring news of the great beyond. Their surprising story could overturn ...
