The fields of Quantum Optics and Nonlinear Photonics merge quantum mechanics with advanced photonic engineering to explore and manipulate light at its most fundamental level. This interdisciplinary ...

A new study explores the behavior of photons, the elementary particles of light, as they encounter boundaries where material properties change rapidly over time. This research uncovers remarkable ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Quantum light sources are a fundamental building block for many quantum technologies, enabling secure communication, powerful computing, and precise sensing and imaging.

In a milestone for scalable quantum technologies, scientists from Boston University, UC Berkeley, and Northwestern University have reported the world’s first electronic–photonic–quantum system on a ...

Large quantum optical networks of tryptophan in protein architectures – the kinds found in mammalian brains, but also in all eukaryotes and even in some bacteria – influence their collective response ...

Researchers at Harvard have created a groundbreaking metasurface that can replace bulky and complex optical components used in quantum computing with a single, ultra-thin, nanostructured layer. This ...

Scientists at the University of Chicago and partner institutions have developed molecular qubits compatible with standard telecommunications networks—a key step toward a future “quantum internet.” The ...
