Astronomers have discovered the most distant quasar known, which is so far from us that its light has taken more than 13 billion years to reach us.
Lasers bounced off satellites replicate classic “delayed choice” experiment
The future of computing depends on it.
For the first time, researchers have developed nanoscale quantum memory chips that store information in individual photons. The chips were able to store data for 75 nanoseconds before release, with a success rate of 97 percent.
A novel system developed by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) could make it possible to control the way a liquid moves over a surface, using only visible light.
It’s even spookier than we predicted.
There is a lot of the universe we cannot see. The many different wave patterns of light is definitely one of them.
According to research published Thursday in Science, physicists at Princeton University have designed a device that allows a single electron to pass its quantum information to a photon in what could be a big breakthrough for silicon-based quantum computers.
Light might be the fastest thing in the entire world, but we don’t have to make ourselves go faster to pass it, we just have to slow light down.
A family of compounds known as perovskites, which can be made into thin films with many promising electronic and optical properties, has been a hot research topic in recent years. But although these materials could potentially be highly useful in applications such as solar cells, some limitations still hamper their efficiency and consistency. Now, a
