31. A 100-Fold Efficiency Boost For Photo Ionisation 11/28/2025

    Speed matters. When an X-ray photon excites an atom or ion, making a core electron jump onto a higher energy level, a short-lived window of opportunity opens.

32. Sydney Researchers Tame 'Noisy' Light In Tiny Lasers 11/28/2025

    Researchers at the University of Sydney have cracked a long-standing problem in microchip-scale lasers by carving ‘tiny speed bumps’ into the devices’ optical cavity in their quest to produce exceptionally ‘clean’ light.

33. Squeezed Light From A Chip 11/27/2025

    It may sound paradoxical, but light can actually be squeezed in order to use it for future quantum technologies.

34. Nature Publication: Progress Towards The Quantum Internet 11/27/2025

    An international research team involving Paderborn University has achieved a decisive breakthrough on the road to the quantum internet.

35. New Photonics Project Targets Smarter, Greener Sensing Technologies 11/26/2025

    In the future, we can use miniature devices with metalenses to identify substances.

36. Illinois Grainger Engineers Develop Reconfigurable Slow-Light Platform For On-Chip Photonic Engineering 11/26/2025

    Integrated circuits are the brains behind modern electronic devices like computers or smart phones. Traditionally, these circuits — also known as chips — rely on electricity to process data.

37. Scientific Breakthrough In Ultrafast Ultraviolet-C Light Generation And Sensing 11/26/2025

    Scientists have developed a new platform for the generation and detection of ultrashort UV-C laser pulses on femtosecond timescales.

38. Chemists Design OLEDs That Electrically Flip The Handedness Of Light 11/26/2025

    Researchers from the University of Oxford have for the first time discovered an approach to electrically switch organic LEDs (OLEDs) to emit either left- or right-handed circularly polarized light without changing the light-emitting molecules.

39. Shop-Bought Cable Powers Quantum Breakthrough 11/26/2025

    For decades, physicists have dreamed of a quantum internet: a planetary web of ultrasecure communications and super-powered computation built not from electrical signals, but from the ghostly connections between particles of light.

40. Accumold Achieves ISO 13485 Recertification, Reaffirming Commitment To Precision In Medical Micro Molding 11/24/2025

    Accumold secures ISO 13485 recertification, reinforcing its commitment to precision, quality, and reliability in micro molded components for demanding medical device applications worldwide.
