In quantum computers, information is often carried by single photons and picked up by structures named superconducting ...

WHATEVER view is held regarding the nature of light, it must. now be admitted that the process whereby an atom loses radiant energy, and another near or distant atom receives the same energy ...

African light installation artists are pushing boundaries, creating a vibrant fusion of technology and art. One such pioneer ...

When light particles, or photons, pass through atoms, some are absorbed by the atoms and later re-emitted. This interaction ...

He, along with a team of U-M researchers, demonstrated for the first time that a twisted filament could produce twirling ...

Quantum information can be carried in particles of light called photons. Single photon emitters that emit precisely one photon at a time are important components for many quantum technologies ...

Scientists have quantified light scattering to find exact areas to place photons to keep them safe from other particles.

Bright, twisted light can be produced with technology similar to an Edison light bulb, researchers have shown. The finding adds nuance to fundamental physics while offering a new avenue for robotic ...
