There are few technologies more fundamental to modern life than the ability to control light with precision. From fiber-optic communications to quantum sensors, the manipulation of photons underpins ...

A new chip-based quantum memory uses 3D-printed “light cages” to store light in atomic vapor with high precision. Quantum ...

Scientists are learning to engineer light in rich, multidimensional ways that dramatically increase how much information a ...

Researchers at The Grainger College of Engineering are using atom-photon entanglement to work towards the future of quantum ...

Researchers have designed a new device that can efficiently create multiple frequency-entangled photons, a feat that cannot be achieved with today's optical devices. The new approach could open a path ...

There are few technologies more fundamental to modern life than the ability to control light with precision. From fiber-optic communications to quantum sensors, the manipulation of photons underpins ...

The proposed method uses a single rare-earth ion, trapped inside a tapered optical fiber, to directly generate and guide single photons within the fiber, representing a key low-cost component for ...

You are watching a long-standing assumption in physics and engineering quietly fall apart. Researchers at Northwestern ...
