Light is usually treated as something simple, a clean beam that either shines or does not. At the quantum level, however, ...

Rocket Lab isn't content to just build launch vehicles anymore. The California-based startup, which lofts small spacecraft to orbit with a rocket called Electron, just unveiled an in-house satellite ...

University of Iowa researchers have discovered a method to "purify" photons, an advance that could make optical quantum technologies more efficient and more secure. Subscribe to our newsletter for the ...

Researchers at the University of Iowa have identified a new way to "purify" photons, a development that could improve both the performance and ...

The Photon satellite platform, right, is based on the kick stge of Rocket Lab’s Electron small launch vehicle. Credit: Rocket Lab WASHINGTON — Rocket Lab announced March 16 that it is acquiring a ...

However, you’d still need a ruler, pencil, and paper to preserve the context of the picture. Unless your camera could take 3D images, that is. Laser scanners, such as Photon 80 and Photon 20 from Faro ...

A new discovery shows that messy, stray light can be used to clean up quantum systems instead of disrupting them. University ...

University of Iowa researchers have modeled how to minimize interference to yield a consistent single photon stream (shown here in this image), an advance that could make quantum computing and ...
