Entanglement is one of the properties specific to quantum particles. When two photons become entangled, for instance, the quantum state of the first will…
“ICON – International Cooperation and Networking” is an internal funding program launched by the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft to bring top international researchers…
The nanocosmos is constantly in motion. All natural processes are ultimately determined by the interplay between radiation and matter. Light strikes particles…
Controlling the interactions between light and matter has been a long-standing ambition for scientists seeking to develop and advance numerous technologies…
Thanks to their unique electrical properties, topological insulators promise many innovations in the electronics and computer industries, as well as in the…
Researchers from Aalto University and VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland have built a super-sensitive bolometer, a type of thermal radiation detector.
Optical phenomena that we encounter in our everyday life, such as reflection, refraction or absorption of light, do not depend on the intensity of incident…
How Do the Strongest Magnets in the Universe Form?
Rocky exoplanets that are around Earth-size are comparatively small, which makes them incredibly difficult to detect and characterise using telescopes. What…
Using observations of galactic cosmic rays — a type of highly energetic particle — from NASA's Voyager spacecraft scientists calculated the total pressure…
Quantum effects are genuinely found in the world of nanostructures and allow a wide variety of new technological applications. For example, a quantum computer…
The hunt for dark matter is one of the most exciting challenges facing fundamental physics in the 21st century. Researchers have long known that it must exist,…
The team found signatures of axion particles composed of Weyl-type electrons (Weyl fermions) in the correlated Weyl semimetal (TaSe₄)₂I. At room temperature,…
Los Alamos National Laboratory scientists have synthesized magnetically-doped quantum dots that capture the kinetic energy of electrons created by ultraviolet…
Over the last two decades, tremendous advances have been made in the field of quantum information science. Scientists are capitalizing on the strange nature of…
When a proton collides at high energy with another proton or atomic nucleus, the effect of the collision is a stream of secondary particles known as a jet in…
