Light can do more than illuminate a material. In some cases, it can temporarily change how electrons move through it.

Light and matter can remain at separate temperatures even while interacting with each other for long periods, according to ...

For the first time, physicists have generated and observed stable bright matter-wave solitons with attractive interactions ...

Scientists are learning how to temporarily reshape materials by nudging their internal quantum rhythms instead of blasting ...

What if you could create new materials just by shining a light at them? To most, this sounds like science fiction or alchemy, ...

Scientists have shown that it may be possible to transform materials simply by triggering internal quantum ripples rather ...

What Are Super Quantum Dots?

Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still daring to test it. Some theories of quantum gravity suggest light might ...

Shaped quantum light is turning ordinary photons into powerful tools for the future of technology.

UD researchers develop optical method to detect magnetic behavior of antiferromagnets, paving the way for advanced computing ...

Combining two kinds of quantum computing devices could be just the trick for taking better images of faint, faraway ...

Scientists have developed a groundbreaking on-chip quantum memory platform using 3D-nanoprinted hollow-core waveguides called "light cages" to store flying photons in cesium vapor. This innovative ...
