A new method developed at the University of Bonn simplifies ultra-precise adjustment for quantum optics experiments. When individual atoms interact with each other, they often exhibit unusual behavior ...
Since it was first demonstrated in the 1960s, spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) has been at the center of many quantum optics experiments that test the fundamental laws of physics in ...
An image from an experiment in the quantum optics laboratory in Cambridge. Laser light was used to excite individual tiny, artificially constructed atoms known as quantum dots, to create "squeezed" ...
