The National Science Foundation (NSF) today announced it has awarded a $1 million, three-year grant to a UMD-led multi-institutional team working to overcome barriers to further progress in quantum sensors, which offer more advanced capabilities than

Today’s quantum computers are complicated to build, difficult to scale up, and require temperatures colder than interstellar space to operate. These

A relatively simple quantum computer design that uses a single atom to manipulate photons could be constructed with currently available components.

Graduate student Ben Bartlett and Shanhui Fan, professor of electrical engineering, have proposed a relatively simple quantum computer design that

Nanotechnology Now Shanhui Fan (Image credit: Rod Searcey) Abstract: Among the first lessons any grade school science student learns is that white light is not white at all, but rather a composite of many photons, those little droplets of energy that make up light, from every color of the rainbow - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. With new optical device, engineers can fine tune the color of light Stanford, CA | Posted on April 23rd, 2021 Now, researchers at Stanford University...

 E-Mail Among the first lessons any grade school science student learns is that white light is not white at all, but rather a composite of many photons, those little droplets of energy that make up light, from every color of the rainbow - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Now, researchers at Stanford University have developed an optical device that allows engineers to change and fine-tune the frequencies of each individual photon in a stream of light to virtually any mixture of...
