Life may be far more luminous than it appears. Researchers from the University of Calgary, working alongside the National ...

Two newly published experiments have resolved one of quantum physics’ most iconic disputes.

Human bodies are not quite as dark as they look. A growing body of research suggests that living tissue constantly releases ...

Physicists from Trinity College Dublin believe new insights into the behavior of light may offer a new means of solving one ...

Shaped quantum light is turning ordinary photons into powerful tools for the future of technology.

Now, two unrelated-but-similar experiments confirm that, in a double-slit experiment, detection of a photon’s path (its ...

Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still ...

A new chip-based quantum memory uses 3D-printed “light cages” to store light in atomic vapor with high precision. Quantum ...

Biophoton research reveals a physical light that accompanies life and fades at the moment of death. Your body is glowing ...

A new type of OLED can generate left- or right-handed circularly polarized light from just one form of light-emitting ...

It is remarkable that Raman spectra can, with the help of statistical inference, be used to predict cellular physiology and proteome composition. By making this possible, the work of Kamei et al. has ...

Scientists are learning to engineer light in rich, multidimensional ways that dramatically increase how much information a ...
