Researchers at NIST Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology were able to make photons emitted by quantum dots at different frequencies identical to each other by shifting their frequencies to ...

Researchers propose an unconventional way to generate light made from entangled photons. In the graphic above, photons meet the electrons of a helium atom, which then emits two entangled photons.

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

Physicists have managed to entangle more than a dozen photons efficiently and in a defined way. They are thus creating a basis for a new type of quantum computer. In order to effectively use a quantum ...

Stanford team builds room-temperature quantum device that eliminates massive energy costs of current quantum systems.

2D projection of the cosmic web as obtained from a supercomputer simulation. CREDIT Dr Ewald Puchwein and the Sherwood-Relics collaboration Dark matter could be made up of ultralight dark photons that ...

Quantum computing is the future of technology, and it’s about to be much more adaptable. A collaboration of researchers from the University of Maryland Joint Quantum Institute (JQI), led by associate ...

UPTON, NY—Scientists seeking to explore the teeming microcosm of quarks and gluons inside protons and neutrons report new data delivered by particles of light. The light particles, or photons, come ...

A gas made of particles of light, or photons, becomes easier to compress the more you squash it. This strange property could prove useful in making highly sensitive sensors. While gases are normally ...

(Nanowerk News) Physicists at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics have managed to entangle more than a dozen photons efficiently and in a defined way (Nature, "Efficient generation of entangled ...
