Measuring disorder at DNA junctions
Spectroscopic measurements of chromophore probes reveal changes in the sugar-phosphate backbone structure of DNA at single-stranded - double-stranded junctions.
A functional quantum communication network using time-bin entanglement
The network connects multiple users separated by 60 kilometers and allows for simultaneous communication.
Frequency tunable laser closes in on terahertz gap
Using methyl fluoride as a new gain medium, the quantum cascade laser-pumped molecular laser covers 120 lines from 0.25 to 1.3 terahertz.
Quantum dot device provides single photons, a building block for future communication networks
The practical and compact plug & play quantum key distribution testbed operates at O-band wavelengths, avoids the need for liquid helium
Spacecraft detect electron phase space holes undergoing strong wave-particle interactions
Magnetospheric Multiscale Mission enables direct millisecond measurements of electron particle flux in space plasma
More than a couple of applications benefit from spin-heat coupling
Spin-heat coupling, the interaction between the spin and heat of energy carriers, can be used to tweak materials’ properties in data storage, spintronics, metrology development
