Light does not “think” in any human sense. Still, under the right conditions, it can behave in a way that looks uncannily like a memory system.

An international study has revealed a surprising connection between quantum physics and the theoretical models underlying ...

The collaboration of TU Wien with research groups in China has resulted in a crucial building block for a new kind of quantum computer: The realization of a novel type of quantum logic gate makes it ...

Scientists have pulled off a feat long considered out of reach: getting light to mimic the famous quantum Hall effect. In ...

A pair of photons enters an optical maze, and sometimes they leave as something new. Not new in the everyday sense, since both were still photons when they came out.

For decades, entanglement has been the hallmark of quantum weirdness, a ghostly connection between particles that Einstein famously called “spooky action at a distance.” It is at the heart of quantum ...

Cables underneath New York City are teeming with entangled quantum particles of light thanks to Qunnect, a company that has ...

Researchers have designed a new device that can efficiently create multiple frequency-entangled photons, a feat that cannot be achieved with today's optical devices. The new approach could open a path ...

In the strange world of quantum physics, even the tiniest tweak can unlock outsized rewards.

Thanks to advances in science, we’re now able to move beyond Bohm and Bohr’s theorizing; we can test their hypotheses through ...
