Breathing-soliton laser study unveils new complexities in synchronization phenomena

24 mars

An Aston University researcher has conducted the first experimental demonstration of intricate and previously theorized behaviors in the fundamental patterns that govern oscillatory systems in nature and technology.

Might the proton decay in other places or at other times ?

24 mars

Does the proton decay ? While this was a famous prediction of Grand Unified Theories (GUTS) developed in the 1970s and 1980s, experimentalists have ruled it out—or rather, put lower limits on its mean lifetime of about 1034 years. That’s 20 orders of magnitude greater than the age of the universe.

Researchers unveil unidirectional light focusing using diffractive optics

24 mars

Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have unveiled a new optical technology that enables precise focusing of light—only in one direction. This novel unidirectional focusing design uses structured diffractive layers that are optimized using deep learning to transmit (…)

Next-generation AI hardware : 3D photonic-electronic platform boosts efficiency and bandwidth

23 mars

Artificial intelligence (AI) systems promise transformative advancements, yet their growth has been limited by energy inefficiencies and bottlenecks in data transfer. Researchers at Columbia Engineering have unveiled a groundbreaking solution : a 3D photonic-electronic platform that achieves (…)

AMoRE experiment sets new limits on neutrinoless double beta decay of ¹⁰⁰Mo

23 mars

In recent years, some large physics experiments worldwide have been trying to gather evidence of a nuclear process known as neutrinoless double beta (0νββ) decay. This is a rare process that entails the simultaneous decay of two neutrons in a nucleus into two protons, without resulting in the (…)

Cutting-edge experiments reveal ’hidden’ details in transforming material with implications for faster microelectronics

21 mars

Phase changes are central to the world around us. Probably the most familiar example is when ice melts into water or water boils into steam, but phase changes also underlie heating systems and even digital memory, such as that used in smartphones.

An experimental test of the nonlocal energy alteration between two quantum memories

21 mars

Quantum technologies operate by leveraging various quantum mechanical effects, including entanglement. Entanglement occurs when two or more particles share correlated states even if they are distant.

Compact solid-state laser system generates 193-nm vortex beam for the first time

21 mars

Deep ultraviolet (DUV) lasers, known for their high photon energy and short wavelengths, are essential in various fields such as semiconductor lithography, high-resolution spectroscopy, precision material processing, and quantum technology. These lasers offer increased coherence and reduced (…)

Researchers capture first laser-driven, high-resolution CT scans of dense objects

21 mars

A research team led by Colorado State University has achieved a new milestone in 3D X-ray imaging technology. The scientists are the first to capture high-resolution CT scans of the interior of a large, dense object—a gas turbine blade—using a compact, laser-driven X-ray source.

Wireless terahertz cryogenic interconnect minimizes heat-to-information transfer in quantum processors

21 mars

Quantum computers, devices that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could outperform classical computers in some complex optimization and computational tasks. However, before these systems can be adopted on a large-scale, some technical challenges will need to be overcome.
