A study now published in Nature Communications brings remarkable insights into the enigmatic behavior of supercritical fluids, a hybrid state...
The scorching surface of Venus, where temperatures can climb to 480°C (hot enough to melt lead), is an inhospitable place...
An increasing number of emerging quantum applications operate using optical technologies. Essentially, photons carry information at the speed of light...
Imagine if your dead laptop or phone could charge in a minute or if an electric car could be fully...
UNSW quantum engineers have developed a new amplifier that could help other scientists search for elusive dark matter particles. Imagine...
Many of today’s quantum devices rely on collections of qubits, also called spins. These quantum bits have only two energy...
Nuclear physicists have long been working to reveal how the proton gets its spin. Now, a new method that combines...
Splash a few drops of water on a hot pan and if the pan is hot enough, the water will...
Nonlinear light microscopy has revolutionized our ability to observe and understand complex biological processes. However, light can also damage living...
Lighting a gas grill, getting an ultrasound, using an ultrasonic toothbrush—these actions involve the use of materials that can translate...
Both literally and figuratively, light pervades the world. It banishes darkness, conveys telecommunications signals between continents and makes visible the...
Light measurement devices called optical frequency combs have revolutionized metrology, spectroscopy, atomic clocks, and other applications. Yet challenges with developing...
