Purdue faculty dedicate countless hours to exploring the frontiers of their respective fields, pushing the boundaries of knowledge and contributing to the ever-evolving landscape of academia. To ...

University of Illinois Physics Professor Paul Kwiat and members of his research group have developed a new tool for precision measurement at the nanometer scale in scenarios where background noise and ...

Laser self-mixing interferometry (SMI) harnesses the phenomenon of optical feedback by reinjecting a fraction of a laser’s output back into its cavity. This reinjection leads to an interference effect ...

A new method based on optical interferometry, to monitor structural damage to buildings hit by earthquakes in real time, is the outcome of the Foresight research project, led by the Politecnico di ...

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science has successfully developed a length measurement system that achieves a level of precision approaching the theoretical limit allowed by quantum ...

A single atom as a movable slit: Researchers realize Einstein's thought experiment in original form, observing ...

The successful creation of a guide star above the European Southern Observatory (ESO) Paranal site in Chile with freshly installed lasers marks a new era of interferometry, according to the ESO team.

"I expect that space-based atom interferometry will lead to exciting new discoveries and fantastic quantum technologies impacting everyday life, and will transport us into a quantum future." When you ...

By ensuring dimensional accuracy and surface integrity, Zygo helps aerospace innovators qualify AM parts faster and with ...

We suspect there are three kinds of people in the world. People who have access to a Michelson Interferometer and are glad, those who don’t have one and don’t know what one is, and a ...
