CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – An “extraordinarily strong” negative refractive index as large as -700 – more than 100 times larger than most previously reported – has been achieved in metamaterials using a technique developed by scientists at Harvard...
New robot handles with care
Oct 1, 2012 — Don’t you just hate it when your personal robot makes a mess instead of an omelet, crushing the eggs when it tries to pick them up? Well, a new five-digit, human-size robotic hand prototype could put an end to all that. Thanks to optical and...
People in the News
Oct 1, 2012 — Mobius Photonics Inc. Mark “Red” Byer and Manuel Leonardo, co-founders of Mobius Photonics Inc., have been promoted to chief operating officer and chief technology officer, respectively, at the fiber-based laser source company....
Semiconductor Etching Monitored with Light
CHAMPAIGN, Ill., Oct. 1, 2012 — An inexpensive, completely optical technique uses a special type of microscope to simultaneously etch features onto a semiconductor wafer’s surface while monitoring the entire process in real time with nanometer precision.
Single-photon beam could lead to quantum computers
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – In a significant step toward quantum computing, scientists at MIT and Harvard University have identified a method that converts laser beams into streams of single photons in a controlled way. The discovery could lead to new quantum devices such as...
System simultaneously uses loss, gain
ERLANGEN, Germany – Light absorption or loss, usually seen as a disadvantage in optical metamaterials, actually can have useful applications. Physicists at Friedrich Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg borrowed a concept from quantum field theory in designing a new...
Toward an “unbreakable” message exchange
WÜRZBURG, Germany – Single particles of light produced and implemented into a quantum key distribution (QKD) link could pave the way for unbreakable communication networks. The single photons were produced by a collaboration of German scientists using two devices made...
