Individual defects can be entangled using photon-photon interactions, providing a path toward large-scale quantum photonic networks. Optically-addressable solid-state spin defects are promising candidates for storing…

Laser beams are invisible in the vacuum unless they are shot directly into your eye. However, physicists are now making laser beams visible in a…

Combustors are critical components of gas engines and the chambers where the combustion that powers the engine takes place. However, combustors frequently fail as a…

Scientists have transferred a technique from one field of plasma physics to another to enable the more efficient design of powerful magnets for tokamaks, which…

Atom is defined as the smallest unit of an element that may or may not exists independently. Molecule implies the set of atoms held together…

A novel method for imaging atom vibrations and movements in catalysts has been developed by researchers. The new method identifies and locates individual atoms in…

Accelerator-based light sources, such as storage rings and free-electron lasers, generate intense radiation over a broad spectral range for fundamental research in physics, chemistry, materials…

Metallic nanostructures’ ability to confine light at the sub-wavelength scale opens up new avenues and opportunities in the field of nanotechnology. Taking advantage of this…

If you’ve ever carefully sniffed the food behind your fridge, wondering if it’s still safe to eat, help may come along the way. If you…

It sounds a bit like alchemy, but researchers have created a pair of matter/antimatter particles using light and gold – but instead of a philosopher’s…

Washing your hands for 20 seconds with soap is a tried and tested method to limit the spread of an illness infection and others. A…

Suck, Lord Kelvin. You may be right about thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, electronics, countless breakthroughs in engineering, the evolution and life cycle of stars, asymptomatic analysis…
