Scientists built a quantum gate linking four-state photons, showing complex quantum tasks can be done with fewer steps using qudits.

Scientists are using atomic clocks to investigate some of the universe's greatest mysteries, including the nature of dark matter, in a laboratory. In the process, they say they're bringing cosmology ...

NYU researchers have found a way to use light to control how microscopic particles assemble into crystals, effectively ...

NYU scientists are using light to precisely control how tiny particles organize themselves into crystals. Their research, ...

Scientists have used a first-of-its-kind technique to visualize two entangled light particles in real time — making them appear as a stunning quantum "yin-yang" symbol. The new method, called biphoton ...

Researchers at NYU have developed a way to use light to precisely direct how microscopic particles assemble into crystals.

The glow from faster-than-light particles gives us a unique way to explore the universe. Nothing can travel faster than light — in a vacuum. But when light slows down, sometimes matter can blaze past ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

As far as particles of light are concerned, the collective is more important than the individual. When they get to decide between two states, they will favor the one that many of their fellow ...
