Newly developed hardware for making high-transmission optical fiber in zero gravity has arrived at the International Space Station (ISS). Launched last week on board a Cygnus cargo ship carrying more ...
Classical optics, rooted in the laws of reflection and refraction that treat light as rays, has long provided a practical framework for imaging and illumination. By contrast, physical optics delves ...
Physicists have demonstrated one of the quintessential effects of quantum optics -- known as the Hong-Ou-Mandel effect -- with microwaves, whose frequency is 100,000 times lower than that of visible ...
