In a new theoretical study, physicists at the University of Oslo modeled a single photon meeting an ultrafast optical shutter ...

Both companies are seeing strong sales growth.

A mathematical model shows that attempting to sever a fundamental particle of light could conjure new ones out of thin air.

Replacing the crystal used for generating entangled photons can significantly increase quantum imaging contrast.

Scientists studying particle collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) usually capture what happens when ...

Novel source for quantum optics experiments could enable experiments in space or other locations with limited electricity ...

While many research groups worldwide have been searching for dark matter over the past decades, detecting it has so far proved very challenging, thus very little is known about its possible ...

Contrary to intuition, photons do not have to be indistinguishable for maximum photon bunching to occur. Partially indistinguishable photons can exhibit pronounced bunching. Scientists working in ...

Researchers from the University of Twente, in the Netherlands, say that they have gained "important insights" into photons, which "behave in an amazingly greater variety than electrons surrounding ...

Researchers have developed a system that connects two neurons by using light-emitting enzymes and light-sensitive ion channels. Our brains are made of billions of neurons, which are connected forming ...
