Slight temperature changes, imperceptible manufacturing imperfections, and heat generated by their own components can completely ruin an entire quantum quantum system-on-chip. Silicon photonics could ...

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

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 ...

As the year draws to a close, we take a look at some of the biggest science stories of the year, and why they matter.

Researchers from Wits University and Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona show how controlling the structure of photons in space and time enables tailored quantum states for next-generation communication ...

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 ...
