A century-old thought experiment on wave–particle duality is brought into the laboratory using a single trapped atom ...
In 1927, Albert Einstein and Neils Bohr debated the nature of what’s known as complementarity—the idea that a photon’s dual wave-like and particle natures can’t be measured at the same time. Now, two ...
Physicists have now teleported the quantum state of a single photon between distant quantum dots, turning a long theorized building block of the quantum internet into a working device. By reliably ...
An international collaboration of researchers, led by Philip Walther at University of Vienna, have achieved a significant breakthrough in quantum technology, with the successful demonstration of ...
Scientists have, for the first time, experimentally proven that angular momentum is conserved even when a single photon splits into two, pushing quantum physics to its most fundamental limits. Using ...
Two-photon microscopy is a type of fluorescence microscopy that, rather than exciting the sample with a single photon, makes use of multiple photons. The advantage over more traditional one-photon ...
