A persistent group of scientists at the University of Warsaw have accomplished the impossible by creating a hologram of a solitary particle of light, reports Business Insider.

"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of physics.

A new study takes the GHZ paradox, which describes how quantum theory can't be described by local realistic descriptions, to ...

Scientists at Sandia National Laboratories and the Max Planck Institute have developed a way to produce a web of quantum entangled photons using a far more simple setup than usual. The key is a ...

Physicists have engineered photons that behave as if they inhabit a space far richer than the familiar three dimensions, ...

Physicists in Israel are the first to entangle five photons in a NOON state – the superposition of two extreme quantum states. Unlike previous schemes for creating such states, the researchers claim ...

Physicists at the Max Planck Institute have developed an efficient new method to drive the quantum entanglement of photons, and demonstrated it by entangling a record number of photons. The technique ...

On and off: Better, simpler control of single-photon emissions opens the door to new platforms in quantum research. (Courtesy: art-skvortsova/iStockphoto) Researchers ...

Scientists working on CERN’s Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment have published the latest data in their search for a long-lived exotic particle known as the dark photon. Dark photons (also called ...

Experts in nuclear physics and quantum information have demonstrated the application of a photon-number-resolving system to accurately resolve more than 100 photons. The feat is a major step forward ...

Scientists have turned a long-standing sci‑fi idea into working hardware, using pure light to move data wirelessly through the air instead of relying on radio waves or copper traces. The result is a ...

Remarkably, the physics of the Josephson effect, describing the tunnel coupling of the two superconductors, dictates that photons within the same junction strongly interact with one another, in sharp ...
