Ultracold atoms have successfully mimicked a fundamental quantum effect normally found in electronic circuits.

Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

A team of scientists has found that the narrow beam of a laser, under specific conditions, can cast a shadow — a counterintuitive finding that could open the doors for new applications of optical ...

In International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing, a new laser machining method that dynamically adapts its beam shape is proposed to fabricate microgrooves with ...

Calculating laser power density What is a LiDAR point cloud? Wide array of applications for lasers. LiDAR (light detection and ranging) can measure the distance of an object (measuring the time for ...

In the battle against avian flu, an NTT East Inc. affiliate has developed a drone that emits laser beams that can scare away disease-ridden wild birds from poultry houses.

Why fast-response, non-contact temperature sensing is needed in biomedical research. How thin, transparent film is used to create the Seebeck effect to measure temperature. The instrumentation ...

At any given moment, trillions of particles called neutrinos are streaming through our bodies and every material in our surroundings, without noticeable effect. Smaller than electrons and lighter than ...
