You might not be able to set up some apparatus in your living room, but quantum entanglement is happening all around you, say ...

However, converting photons into electrical signals can slow down processing times since light operates at higher speeds.

Computers that use photons rather than electrons to manipulate data promise greater speed and energy efficiency, and the ...

Two companies have announced photonic devices that could solve specific real-world problems faster and with less energy than conventional computers.

Research teams from USTC have realized a high-performance single-photon source with an efficiency beyond the scalable linear ...

In a study published in The Astrophysics Journal, a Michigan State University researcher used the NASA Chandra X-Ray ...

Gamma-ray bursts, the most powerful kinds of explosions known in the cosmos, may help provide a piece of the puzzle when it ...

Proponents of photonics argue that from networks to devices and chips, fully optical technologies can deliver "ultra-low" ...

A Michigan State University researcher saw X-rays coming from a black hole using the NASA Chandra X-Ray Observatory telescope ...

The term 'laser' stands for "Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation." Lasers are made of a source of energy, ...

High-energy particle accelerators, such as CERN’s Proton Synchrotron and Brookhaven’s Alternating Gradient Synchrotron, were ...

In this regard, neutrinos present a dichotomy: though outnumbered in the cosmos only by photons, they are notoriously elusive ... Its deep-sea arrays of optical sensors detect Cherenkov light emitted ...
