For over a decade, researchers have considered boson sampling—a quantum computing protocol involving light particles—as a key ...

What happens when a quantum physicist is frustrated by the limitations of quantum mechanics when trying to study densely packed atoms? At EPFL, you get a metamaterial, an engineered material that ...

Imagine detecting a single trillionth of a gram of a molecule—like an amino acid—using just electricity and a chip smaller ...

Caltech professor of chemistry Sandeep Sharma and colleagues from IBM and the RIKEN Center for Computational Science in Japan ...

Scientists at EPFL have created a revolutionary biosensor that doesn't need a light source—it makes its own glow using ...

In quantum physics, observing a system forces it to collapse into one state. ... “Quantum probability waves are waves after all—why not model them with sound?” said Padlewski.

Optical biosensors use light waves as a probe to detect molecules, and are essential for precise medical diagnostics, ...
