The controlled generation of single photons is an essential element of numerous quantum technology applications, such as ...

For more than 40 years, scientists have known that the quantum Hall effect impacts electrons in strong magnetic fields, but it turns out light also follows the fundamental phenomenon.

Alessandro Fedrizzi is in the School of Engineering & Physical Sciences, Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh EH14 AS, UK. Read the paper: Energy–speed relationship of quantum particles challenges ...

Researchers showcased a new method for generating single photons in a diamond-based quantum system. This progress brings ...

Physicists have for the first time observed light drifting sideways in discrete, quantized steps, reproducing a quantum Hall effect that was previously seen only in electrons confined to ultra-thin ...

If photons possess more quantum states than expected, it would overhaul our understanding of all particle physics – and now physicists have identified a way to test this radical idea in an experiment.

A new room-temperature quantum device developed at Stanford uses twisted light and advanced materials to link photons and ...

Under the direction of Prof. Dr. Tim Schröder, a research team from the Joint Lab Diamond Nanophotonics at the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut (FBH) in Berlin and the Integrated Quantum Photonics working ...

An international study has revealed a surprising connection between quantum physics and the theoretical models underlying artificial intelligence. The study results from a collaboration between the ...

A core tenet of quantum theory was imperilled this year when a team of researchers put forward a radical new interpretation of an experiment about the nature of light. At the centre of the new work ...

How it works: the top frequency comb is passed through a sample of interest and then into a beamsplitter. The bottom frequency comb operates at a slightly different pulse repetition frequency and is ...
