“A team of international researchers reports in OPTICA the first demonstration that shows how single rare-earth ions have been addressed and detected in an ensemble of atoms within a nanoparticle that has been coupled to a fiber-microcavity, which allows for …

“Researchers from ICFO, Corning Incorporated, Micro Photon Devices, and Politecnico di Milano successfully demonstrate the transport of two-photon quantum states of light through a phase-separated Anderson localization optical fiber. Invented in 1970 by Corning Incorporated, low-loss optical fiber became the …

“Researchers from ICFO, IFN-CNR and Heriot-Watt University report in Science Advances the demonstration of entanglement between a fibre-integrated quantum memory and a telecommunications-wavelength photon Quantum memories are one of the building blocks of the future quantum internet. Without them …

“Researchers from ICFO in Barcelona, Columbia University, NTU in Singapore and NIMS in Japan, report in Science on experimentally achieving for the first time the bending of electrons in bilayer graphene with the use of light. The way electrons flow …

“Using atoms only a few billionths of a degree above absolute zero, a team of researchers from ICFO and Aalto University have detected magnetic signals undetectable by any other existing sensor technology. Magnetometers measure the direction, strength or relative changes …

“An international team of researchers shows through a concrete theoretical experiment that the prediction by standard complex quantum theory cannot be expressed by its real counterpart and ratifies its need of complex numbers. Their results have been published in Nature …

“ICFO researchers report in Nature Photonics on having achieved a solution-processed infrared laser at room temperature compatible with CMOS technology and tunable to emit in the telecommunications window. Lasers, devices that emit light in one direction, with photons traveling at …

“In a study in Science, researchers from ICFO, MIT, Duke, University of Paris-Saclay, and Universidad do Minho report on the smallest cavities ever realized for infrared light by using graphene and metallic cubes of nanometer sizes. Miniaturization has enabled so …

“ICFO researchers report on a new method to obtain high color purity 3D objects with the use of a new class of nanoparticles. Selective powder sintering for 3D printing has recently become an increasingly affordable solution for manufacturing made-to-order elements …

“A study published in Nature provides a solution on how to simulate chemical reactions with quantum chemistry. Being able to simulate how a molecule unfolds or how it reacts with another one to produce a larger molecular compound is an …
