Physicists have created a quantum interferometer on an atom chip. This device can be used to explore the fundamentals of quantum theory by studying the interference pattern between two beams of atoms.

Certain detection of gravitational waves requires at least two detectors located at widely separated sites. Regional phenomena such as micro-earthquakes, acoustic noise, and laser fluctuations can ...

Interferometers, devices that can modulate aspects of light, play the important role of modulating and switching light signals in fiber-optic communications networks and are frequently used for gas ...

This article outlines how to measure, control, and stabilize the relative distance of two interferometer paths to sub-wavelength precision over numerous wavelengths, using the Zurich Instruments MFLI ...

So far, humanity has yet to find its first "exomoon"—a moon orbiting a planet outside of the solar system. But that hasn't ...

Modern semiconductor manufacturing technology has advanced rapidly. Because of this, measurement using non-contact displacement and transparent coating thickness has become very critical. Applications ...

Fringe conference can be traced to the automatic processing of fringe patterns. The term “patterns” evokes an image of flowing lines elegantly wrapped around surface contours. However, automatic ...

Warming up: illustration of the interferometer. (Courtesy: APS / Alan Stonebreaker) An atom interferometer that does not have to be cooled to cryognenic temperatures has been created by physicists in ...

NASA has selected a new mission to study how the Sun generates and releases giant space weather storms – known as solar particle storms – into planetary space. Not only will such information improve ...
