Scattered Photons Transfer Quantum Coherence in Free Space
WATERLOO, Ontario, June 15, 2021 — Researchers at the University of Waterloo report the first successful transfer and recovery of quantum coherence using photons scattered in free space. The work points toward research opportunities and applications in fields ranging from quantum...
Terahertz Quantum Cascade Laser Light Propogates Beyond Laboratory Walls
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 4, 2020 — Researchers at MIT and the University of Waterloo (Canada) created a high-power quantum cascade laser (QCL) capable of generating terahertz radiation outside of a laboratory environment. The laser has applications for skin cancer diagnostics and...
Photoacoustic Technology Could Revolutionize Cancer Surgery
WATERLOO, Ontario, Oct. 8, 2019 — Researchers at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada, have developed photoacoustic technology that can precisely locate and distinguish all of a cancerous tumor during surgery. This could help ensure that healthy tissue remains intact while...
Ultrastrong Coupling Achieved Between Light and Matter
WATERLOO, Ontario, Nov. 22, 2016 — An ultrastrong coupling (USC) between photons and qubits 10 times larger than ever seen may open the door to a domain of physics and applications deemed unattainable until recently. Researchers at the University of Waterloo's Institute for Quantum...
ALOP: Bringing Optics and Photonics to the Developing World
May 28, 2015 — Teaching introductory O&P courses is very challenging. Teachers must understand math and physics well enough to provide students the requisite understanding of both. They also have to choose the best teaching techniques from options including...
Nanowire Detector Assists Three-Photon Entanglement
WATERLOO, Ontario, Canada, Sept. 15, 2014 — An ultrafast, super-efficient single-photon detector has led to direct entanglement of three photons. Researchers at the University of Waterloo, with help from a team at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), made the discovery...
Waterloo Professor Wins Award for Optics Research
WATERLOO, Ontario, Canada, June 3, 2014 — The Canadian Association of Physicists (CAP) and the National Optics Institute have awarded Melanie Campbell the 2014 Medal for Outstanding Achievement in Applied Photonics. The award recognizes Campbell’s numerous contributions to the field...
Nanoballoons and Lasers: A New Cancer Fighter
BUFFALO, N.Y., April 3, 2014 — Chemotherapeutic drugs have long held their own in the fight against cancer, but inefficiency in delivery and unwanted side effects continue to hinder the process.
University of Calgary Launches Institute for Quantum Science and Technology
CALGARY, Alberta, Canada, Sept. 27, 2013 — The University of Calgary has announced the creation of the Institute for Quantum Science and Technology (IQST), a unit dedicated to research, training and outreach in the field of quantum science. The institute will focus on themes of quantum...
Taking Supercomputing Out of the Lab
TORONTO, May 3, 2012 — Producing finely tuned particles of light for high-speed computing is a complex and time-consuming process, but now a novel solution could make the fabrication of these photons faster and easier.
Two-Slit Interferometer Experiment Gets Makeover
TORONTO, June 9, 2011 — By applying a modern measurement technique to the historic two-slit interferometer experiment, scientists soon may be able to measure reality without distorting it. Quantum mechanics tells us that a tree falling in a forest with no one there...
OSA Names 2011 VP
ROCHESTER, N.Y., Nov. 4, 2010 — The Optical Society of America (OSA) announced recently that its members have elected Donna T. Strickland as its 2011 vice president. In addition, three directors at large were also chosen at this year’s election, including Naomi J. Halas or...
Photon Triplets Generated
WATERLOO, Ont., Aug. 2, 2010 — An international research team achieved a longstanding milestone in quantum optics research — the direct generation of photon triplets. This result has been sought for years but never achieved until now. An illustration of the triple...
Physicists Confirm Born’s Rule
INNSBRUCK, Austria & WATERLOO, Ontario, Canada, July 22, 2010 — Using a single-photon source, Austrian and Canadian quantum physicists said they ruled out the existence of higher-order interferences experimentally and confirmed an axiom in quantum physics: Born’s rule.
Making electro-optical sense with Zinc Oxide
Feb 28, 2010 — ZnO has many properties that make it attractive for optoelectronic applications. It has a bandgap of 3.37 eV – the same as gallium nitride (GaN) – and an excitation binding energy of about 60 meV. It is transparent under visible wavelengths of light...
