Physicists have now experimentally observed two-path quantum interference using many different particles, including electrons, neutrons, atoms and simple molecules. It's worth checking out this very ...
Light has always been the stage on which quantum mechanics performs its strangest tricks, and the double-slit experiment is ...
Scientists have hypothesized that moir excitons -- electron-hole pairs confined in moir interference fringes which overlap with slightly offset patterns -- may function as qubits in next-generation ...
"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of physics.
God does not play dice with the universe,” Albert Einstein famously declared in 1927, sparking one of the most enduring ...
Optical interference is not only a fundamental phenomenon that has enabled new theories of light to be derived, but it has also been used in interferometry for the measurement of small displacements, ...
About time: Romain Tirole from Imperial College London and colleagues have created a temporal version of the famous double-slit experiment (Courtesy: Thomas Angus, Imperial College London) Thomas ...
At the quantum boundary This experiment at the University of Vienna proves that objects as big as molecules can interfere. (Image: Robin Riegler) Ever since quantum theory was developed during the ...
The bandgap, i.e. the energy gap between the highest lying valence and the lowest lying conduction band, is a defining property of insulating solids, governing how they absorb light and conduct ...
