Scientists have developed a new way to build rare-earth crystals that boosts quantum coherence to tens of milliseconds. This leap could extend quantum communication distances from city blocks to ...

Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other fundamental interactions (electromagnetism, strong force and weak force) ...

A glittering hunk of crystal gets its iridescence from a highly regular atomic structure. Frank Wilczek, the 2012 Nobel Laureate in Physics, proposed quantum systems––like groups of particles––could ...

Aashish Clerk, Professor of Molecular Engineering, Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering, University of Chicago will give a talk on “One-way quantum interactions for fun and profit.” Abstract: The ...

A team of physicists at the University of Warsaw has built the world’s first all-optical radio receiver powered entirely by laser light. The device, developed by researchers from the Faculty of ...

A man carries a sign while dressed as George Washington during a No Kings Day rally at Lincoln-Douglas Square on Saturday, Oct. 18, 2025. The Alton event was one of more than a thousand happening ...

A new twist on a classic material could advance quantum computing and make modern data centers more energy efficient, according to a team led by researchers at Penn State. Subscribe to our newsletter ...
