Freshly squeezed: A new technique for squeezing light could soon be used at LIGO. (Courtesy: LIGO) The quantum state of light has been squeezed more than ever before by physicists in Germany, who have ...

Light Publishing Center, Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics And Physics, CAS Bright squeezed light, exhibiting sub-shot-noise quantum noise combined with significant optical power, is ...

It's one thing to produce nanoscale devices, but it's another to study and improve on them — they're so small they can't reflect enough light to get a good look. A breakthrough might make that ...

Precise detection of magnetic fields is important for applications that range from magnetic brain imaging, to detection of sunken ships, to exploration of the solar system. For many of these ...

Quantum metrology exploits uniquely quantum phenomena—most notably entanglement and squeezing—to achieve measurement precision beyond the standard quantum limit imposed by uncorrelated particles. In ...
