A team of physicists has uncovered a surprising new way to explore one of science's greatest challenges: uniting the two fundamental theories that explain how our universe works—Einstein's theory of ...

Metasurface converts Gaussian beams to uniform light via polarization encoding, boosting NMR co-magnetometer sensitivity 23% for compact quantum sensors.

Quantum technologies are cutting-edge systems that can process, transfer, or store information leveraging quantum mechanical ...

Theoretical advancements in quantum metrology by Dr. Mackoit-Sinkeviciene are shaping the future of quantum technologies and ...

Chiral metasurfaces can strongly twist the polarization of light, but how this process unfolds in space and time has been unclear. Scientists in China have now used ultrafast electron microscopy and ...

Researchers at Stanford University have demonstrated a nanoscale optical device that entangles the spin of photons and electrons at room temperature, overcoming a major practical limitation in quantum ...

Nearly two centuries after Michael Faraday first showed that magnetism can twist light, physicists have uncovered a hidden magnetic ingredient inside this classic effect. The new work reveals that the ...

In the classical world, a beam of light is a smooth, continuous wave. In the quantum realm, however, photons manifest as the discrete constituents (quanta) of light. These photons can be carefully ...

At the heart of many quantum computers are ions held in place and manipulated with light. These qubits must be chilled near ...
