By squeezing terahertz light beyond its usual limits, researchers have exposed hidden quantum "jiggles" inside a ...

MIT physicists have built a new microscope that can see quantum motion inside superconductors ...

The implications of the breakthrough could ripple through multiple industries. A better understanding of how superconductivity behaves at quantum scales could accelerate the development of ...

Light can tell you a lot about what matter is doing. Visible light shows a surface. X-rays reveal hidden structure. Infrared ...

A new microscope is capable of live imaging of biological processes in such detail that moving protein complexes are visible. In Nijmegen, the world's first microscope has been installed that is ...

A new holographic microscope allows scientists to see through the skull and image the brain. The new label-free deep-tissue imaging with the wave correction algorithm retrieves the fine neural network ...

The superconducting gap sets the basic energy scale that allows electricity to flow without resistance in a superconductor. In high‑temperature cuprates, the paired electrons (Cooper pairs) are mostly ...

As a result, an ordinary light microscope using one of the slides is able to image much smaller objects than was previously possible. In tests conducted so far, the slide enabled such a microscope to ...
