A light has emerged at the end of the tunnel in the long pursuit of developing quantum computers, which are expected to ...

Scientists achieve optical measurements at atomic scales using quantum electron tunneling, surpassing conventional microscopy limits by nearly 100,000 times with standard lasers.

Researchers from Regensburg and Birmingham have overcome a fundamental limitation of optical microscopy. With the help of ...

Light can do more than illuminate a material. In some cases, it can temporarily change how electrons move through it.

Scientists have shown that it may be possible to transform materials simply by triggering internal quantum ripples rather ...

Quantum computing has long promised to crack problems that defeat even the fastest supercomputers, but the hardware has ...

Researchers from Wits University and Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona show how controlling the structure of photons in space and time enables tailored quantum states for next-generation communication ...

Quantum light is moving from blackboard equations into engineered hardware, and the shift is starting to redraw the map of advanced technology. By sculpting individual photons in space, time and ...

A new chip-based quantum memory uses nanoprinted “light cages” to trap light inside atomic vapor, enabling fast, reliable storage of quantum information. The structures can be fabricated with extreme ...

Long before quantum mechanics existed, a scientist developed a powerful way of describing motion by drawing an analogy between particles and light.
