Long before quantum mechanics existed, a scientist developed a powerful way of describing motion by drawing an analogy between particles and light.

Caltech scientists have developed a way to guide light on silicon wafers with low signal loss approaching that of optical ...

Light does a lot of work in the modern world, enabling all types of information technology, from TVs to satellites to ...

Applied physicists in the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have demonstrated a new ...

Dispersion is an inherent feature of electromagnetic waves. It allows light to behave differently at different wavelengths, which can be useful, but it also creates chromatic aberrations. As bandwidth ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is creating value up and down the data center technology stack, so chip suppliers like Nvidia aren't the only winners in this hardware boom. Corning supplies fiber optic ...

The average full fibre customer gets through 22.1GB a day on average – which is apparently equivalent to taking part in 40 hours of Zoom or Teams calls, and fibre usage overtook older fixed broadband ...

In 1925, German physicist Werner Heisenberg published a paper on quantum mechanics, upending classical physics and launching the world into the quantum age.

A record-breaking neutrino detection in 2023 may mark the first time humans witnessed a primordial black hole exploding, and these ancient objects could be the dark matter holding galaxies together.

A doctoral student recreated a tiny piece of the universe in a bottle to investigate the chemistry that led to life on Earth.

British Columbia won't be renewing its agreement with Health Canada that allowed for the decriminalization of small amounts of drugs for personal possession, officially ending a three-year program ...
