Terahertz quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) represent a transformative development in the field of terahertz photonics, providing coherent radiation within a traditionally challenging spectral region ...

The quest is on to make terahertz sources that are small, portable and capable of operating at room temperature. Such a breakthrough could lead to advances in everything from cancer screening to ...

Biomass can be converted into valuable gases. But in order to control this process, the amount of water vapor has to be measured. This is notoriously hard, because other components of the gas can ...

Aim is to give SMEs access to new sources for multispectral analytics and business development. Demonstration unit created in the QuantumCascade project. Creating new laser systems for use in ...

The 2025 Nobel Prize in physics has been awarded to a trio of scientists – a Briton, a Frenchman and an American – for their ground-breaking discoveries in the field of quantum mechanics.John Clarke, ...

In 1947, when Bell Labs created the transistor, we could never have imagined this invention would underpin the microprocessor, the internet, and the digital world as we know it. The same potential for ...
