Engineers have developed an airborne method for imaging underwater objects by combining light and sound to break through the seemingly impassable barrier at the interface of air and water. Stanford ...

For the first time, a team of researchers successfully used lasers to generate sound waves on the surface of a microchip, opening the door for completely new microchip design considerations that ...

For a wide variety of emerging quantum technologies, such as secure quantum communications and quantum computing, quantum entanglement is a prerequisite. Scientists have now demonstrated a ...

Schrödinger dynamics inspired novel wave physics explorations, including symmetry design, Floquet topology, adiabatic pumping, non-Hermitian dynamics, non-Abelian physics and nonlinear phenomena. In a ...

When an intense laser pulse hits a stationary electron, it performs a trembling motion at the frequency of the light field.

While many plans for quantum computers transmit data using the particles of light known as photons, researchers from the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (UChicago PME) ...

A flash of light has turned a sheet of atoms into a dance floor. In a feat of precision physics, researchers from Cornell and ...

You can’t divide the indivisible, unless you use quantum mechanics. Physicists have now turned to quantum effects to split phonons, the smallest bits of sound, researchers report in the June 9 Science ...
