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

Shaped quantum light is turning ordinary photons into powerful tools for the future of technology.

Metal clusters made of thousands of atoms showed quantum interference, offering new insight into how large objects follow ...

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 ...

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

Physicists have engineered photons that behave as if they inhabit a space far richer than the familiar three dimensions, revealing light-like particles with a strikingly high-dimensional character. By ...

Light and matter can remain at separate temperatures even while interacting with each other for long periods, according to ...

Physicists have discovered that when beams of light interact at the quantum level, they can generate ghost-like particles that briefly emerge from nothing and affect real matter. This rare phenomenon, ...

Highly anticipated: Scientists at the University of Arizona have demonstrated a method to capture and manipulate quantum uncertainty in real time using rapid pulses of light, marking what they ...

There is no measurement that can directly observe the wave function of a quantum mechanical system, but the wave function is still enormously useful as its (complex) square represents the probability ...

The team have pushed the boundaries of quantum mechanics beyond what some thought possible. Now they want to go even further ...

Cosmology and quantum physics both offer tantalizing possibilities that we inhabit just one reality among many. But testing ...
