Quantum technologies are cutting-edge systems that can process, transfer, or store information leveraging quantum mechanical ...

Physicists have engineered photons that behave as if they inhabit a space far richer than the familiar three dimensions, revealing light-like particles with a strikingly high-dimensional character. By ...

Experiments reveal that metallic nanoparticles thousands of atoms wide can exist in quantum superposition, providing a ...

A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone ...

Scientists are learning how to temporarily reshape materials by nudging their internal quantum rhythms instead of blasting ...

Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still daring to test it. Some theories of quantum gravity suggest light might ...

Light and matter can remain at separate temperatures even while interacting with each other for long periods, according to ...

Scientists have shown that it may be possible to transform materials simply by triggering internal quantum ripples rather ...

Classical and quantum mechanics don’t really get along as the science of the subatomic can get, well, weird. Take, for instance, quantum entanglement, which says that the state of one particle can be ...

Quantum entanglement happens when two particles become interconnected and share a single state. Scientists have measured how ...

In 2024, a quantum state of light was successfully teleported through more than 30 kilometers (around 18 miles) of fiber optic cable amid a torrent of internet traffic – a feat of engineering once ...
