which can be difficult to handle. Polymers put fewer constraints on the size of a lens compared to glass, especially when manufacturing small optics. Polymer lenses, for example, can be molded with outside diameters of less than 1 mm, whereas traditional fabrication...
where each qubit is encoded into the electronic state of a trapped atomic ion," said the research team, led by Ben Lanyon and Rainer Blatt at the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, together with theorists from the University...
WASHINGTON, D.C., May 13, 2022 — An ancient optical illusion has been updated using the flat optics of today to create a device that reveals a hidden image when light is shined on it. Developed at the University of Ottawa, the magic window is a liquid crystal (LC)-based device that ...
different architectures than today's machines. Their switches, called quantum bits or "qubits," will be able to represent more than just a 1 or 0, as conventional processors do; they will be able to represent multiple values simultaneously, giving them powers conventional computers do not ...
“We wanted to design a device that naturally avoids loss, and the best way to do that is to have light propagate through nothing. The simplest bit of ‘nothing’ that can still guide photons along a controlled path is a waveguide, which is a very basic component in photonic circui...
Heed lessons from past studies involving transgender people: first, do no harm Decades of neuroscientific work have focused on exploring a biological basis for transgender identity — but researchers must take societal factors into account.

To do this, the researchers used a quantum hybrid of light and matter, called a polariton. These particles are formed by shining laser light onto specially layered materials. “When the light gets trapped in the layers, the light and the...
This proof-of-concept discovery shows that vertical transistors made of germanium tin are good candidates for high-performance chips and, perhaps, quantum computers. Germanium–tin transistors display an electron mobility that is 2.5 times higher compared to a comparable transistor comprised of pure ger...
