Researchers at McGill University have developed a novel device that generates sound-like particles known as phonons at ...

Since the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park was backed by the state about two years ago, quantum technology ...

We consider a vacuum to be the lowest energy state of the Universe. But it's possible that there's an even lower-energy, more ...

A new method reveals hidden order in quantum systems, potentially transforming how they are measured and used.

The idea that everything that exists can be built from the bottom up has long held sway among physicists. Now, a new kind of ...

A ball tossed into the air follows a path that classical physics can track with confidence. Shrink that ball down to the size ...

A tiny silica bead, just 100 nanometers across, sits suspended in a vacuum and vibrates under the grip of laser light. Those ...

There's a lot of hype about its promise, especially because it has this ability for increased processing speed and power," ...

In quantum mechanics, particles do not behave like everyday objects. Instead of existing in one clearly defined state, they ...

For the first time, scientists have measured the 'shape' of an electron in solids, opening the door to advances in quantum ...

When you throw a ball in the air, the equations of classical physics will tell you exactly what path the ball will take as it ...

In a breakthrough experiment, scientists directly imaged how particles pair up in a system that mimics superconductors.
