Elimination of detrimental cross-talks in single-photon detectors pushes quantum optics to new limits

Light and electric current can both be used for computing, albeit with key differences. Whereas conventional computers do logic through the movement of electrons, newer and faster computers called quantum computers perform the same job using single particles of light, known as photons.

Maui resort marks 20 years with 20-hand massage

The effect must be similar to 10 maestros all sitting down on the same piano bench. But instead of bestowing their virtuosity upon 85 ivory keys, they’re simultaneously striking your aching muscles.

New generation of superlattice cameras add more ‘color’ to night vision

Recent breakthroughs have enabled scientists from the Northwestern University's Center for Quantum Devices to build cameras that can see more than one optical waveband or "color" in the dark. The semiconducting material used in the cameras – called type-II superlattices – can be tuned to absorb a wide range of infrared wavelengths, and now, a number of distinct infrared bands at the same time.

Cloaking magnetic fields: The first ‘antimagnet’ device developed

Spanish researchers have designed what they believe to be a new type of magnetic cloak, which shields objects from external magnetic fields, while at the same time preventing any magnetic internal fields from leaking outside, making the cloak undetectable.

PGT: It’s now easier — and harder — to win majors

PGT: Without the likes of Woods, Nicklaus, Player or Palmer dominating the sport, the majors have become a total crapshoot. But at the same time, they've become that much harder to win.

Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster Drops Its Top and Loses Its Wings

Sometimes history repeats itself. In 1954, the Mercedes-Benz 300SL—affectionately referred to as the Gullwing—was built by the German automaker as a production car with one peculiar feature: its doors lifted toward the sky. A few years later, Mercedes released the 300SL Roadster, which was essentially the same car, sans the ...

Long live the qubit!

A quantum computer is a device -- still largely theoretical -- that could perform some types of calculations much more rapidly than classical computers. While a bit in a classical computer can represent either 0 or 1, a quantum bit, or qubit, can be in "superposition," representing 0 and 1 at the same time.
