Quantum technologies are systems that can compute data, sense their surrounding environment or perform other functions leveraging quantum mechanical effects. Connecting these technologies over long ...

Ask the publishers to restore access to 500,000+ books. An icon used to represent a menu that can be toggled by interacting with this icon. A line drawing of the Internet Archive headquarters building ...

The new approach uses a purely optical technique called stimulated two-photon excitation to generate streams of photons in different polarization states directly from a quantum dot without requiring ...

James is a published author with multiple pop-history and science books to his name. He specializes in history, space, strange science, and anything out of the ordinary.View full profile James is a ...

In a quiet lab at MIT, a group of physicists may have just resolved one of the most iconic debates in the history of science. Using state-of-the-art tools and techniques that Albert Einstein and Niels ...

Physicists confirm that light has two identities that are impossible to see at once. (Nanowerk News) MIT physicists have performed an idealized version of one of the most famous experiments in quantum ...

The unbelievers are still hoping against hope that electric cars won’t be as durable as ICE cars — but after more than 250,000 miles of driving in just three years, this Ford Mustang Mach-E isn’t just ...

The experimental layout of the sender Alice and the receiver Bob. Alice’s setup contains the excitation and collection setup of the single photon source, and a Sagnac-like polarization modulator for ...

Abstract: We propose an ultracompact fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer with a strong single-wavelength-dip interference spectrum and enhanced broadband sensitivity using two cascaded tiny sections of ...
