A team of physicists has pushed the limits of quantum control by cooling the rotational motion of a nanoscale object to its ...

Manuel Endres, professor of physics at Caltech, specializes in finely controlling single atoms using devices known as optical tweezers. He and his colleagues use the tweezers, made of laser light, to ...

ETH Zurich researchers levitated a nano glass sphere cluster with record-setting quantum purity at room temperature, avoiding costly cooling. Using optical tweezers, they isolated quantum zero-point ...

In quantum physics, objects can exist in multiple states at the same time—a phenomenon known as quantum superposition, where ...

Quantum mechanics tells us that a particle can never be perfectly still. But how precisely can it be oriented? A research team at the University of ...

A collaborative effort between researchers at multiple institutes in Europe achieved a global first ...

A new experiment encodes quantum information in the motion of the atoms and creates a state known as hyper-entanglement, in which two or more traits are linked among a pair of atoms. Manuel Endres, ...
