To build light-based quantum technologies, scientists and engineers need the ability to generate and manipulate photons as individuals or a few at a time. To build such quantum photonic logic gates ...

Electro-optic modulators (EOMs) are cardinal elements in the optical communication networks that control the amplitude, phase and polarization of a light via external electric signals. Aiming to ...

2D van der Waals magnetic/non-magnetic heterojunctions hold significant promise for spintronic devices. Achieving these functionalities hinges on the interfacial proximity effect, a critical factor.

Cavity quantum electrodynamics (cQED), which focuses on the strong coupling between single quantum emitters and optical cavities, has emerged as a core foundation for developing next-generation ...

Beams of light, shown in orange and blue, are shined on a surface acoustic wave resonator, where their interactions are controlled by a precisely designed cavity. Inside this echo chamber, the light ...

Commercialization has started for network switches based on co-packaged optics (CPO), which are capable of routing signals at terabits per second speeds, but manufacturing challenges remain regarding ...

MIT researchers have developed electronic-photonic integration technologies that could enable petabit-scale data transfer ...

Researchers at Monash University have built a single nanoscale chip that generates, steers, and electrically reads light-based signals at room temperature, combining three functions that previously ...
