Early carbon light bulbs may have produced graphene, since applying voltage to carbon filaments mirrors what is now called ...

Researchers in James Tour’s lab at Rice University showed that Thomas Edison’s original carbon-filament light bulbs could ...

Entangled atoms, separated in space, are giving scientists a powerful new way to measure the world with stunning precision.

Scientists are learning how to temporarily reshape materials by nudging their internal quantum rhythms instead of blasting ...

Researchers from University of Rostock and University of Hamburg have demonstrated for the first time that hidden symmetries ...

A research group at the University of Geneva (UNIGE) demonstrates that the state of a quantum system can be inferred through ...

Excitons just unlocked a shortcut to manipulating quantum materials, without vaporizing them with intense light.

But only in the last 70 years have we known for certain they were there. In 1956, physicists Clyde Cowan and Frederick Reines ...

Researchers have achieved quantum "alchemy" that allows them to alter the properties of materials using high-powered ...

Researchers in Germany have created a new photonic chip that precisely controls quantum light without disrupting fragile signals.

Ultraviolet-B (UV-B) semiconductor lasers are highly sought for medical, biotechnology, and precision manufacturing ...

Light can do more than illuminate a material. In some cases, it can temporarily change how electrons move through it.
