Quantum geometry describes quantum states in systems with changing system parameters, such as an electron spinning in a magnetic field whose direction is slowly changing. The state of the electron ...

A surprising trick that allows a beam of light to be completely absorbed even in the thinnest of layers: Using mirrors and lenses, a 'light trap' can be constructed, in which the light beam is steered ...

Anton Montag, doctoral student in the research group of Dr. Flore Kunst “Non-Hermitian Topological Phenomena” at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light in Erlangen. Quantum geometry is a ...

Scientists show that the geometry behind light waves can affect how light moves and interacts inside materials. Their research explores the hidden geometry of light and reveals new connections between ...

In the HiPEQ project, a consortium of industry and research partners has developed new laser-based approaches to enable ...

Scientists at MIT discovered that chaotic laser light can spontaneously form a highly focused beam instead of scattering—if the conditions are just right. This “pencil beam” enabled them to image the ...

New quantum geometry leap: Scientists applied quantum geometry to non-Hermitian photonic systems, adding control over light's intensity and trajectory. Direct metric measurement: The team developed an ...

Span, a California-based startup, has developed small, fractional data centers, or "nodes," called XFRA units. The idea is to take advantage of unused electrical capacity on local grids, which the ...

Swollen supraclavicular lymph nodes may occur as a reaction to infection or due to metastatic cancer. This type of swelling typically occurs just above a person’s collarbone. Swelling in the ...
