“In a series of papers, Rochester researchers report major strides in improving the transfer of information in quantum systems. Quantum science has the potential to revolutionize modern technology with more efficient computers, communication, and sensing devices. But challenges remain in …

“Researchers at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics are the first to experimentally measure the mechanism responsible for generating astrophysical magnetic fields. An international research collaboration, co-led by researchers at the University of Rochester’s Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) and …

“A ‘FROC’ can both transmit and reflect the same color simultaneously, a breakthrough in optical coating. For more than a century, optical coatings have been used to better reflect certain wavelengths of light from lenses and other devices or, conversely …

“The rendezvous of the double planets was often grafted onto apocalyptic prophecies, says University of Rochester historian Laura Ackerman Smoller. Astronomers and amateur star gazers alike are training their telescopes on the evening sky for a heavenly spectacle when the …

“New clues lead to a better understanding of the evolution of the solar system and the origin of Earth as a habitable planet. In a new paper published in the journal Nature Communications Earth and Environment, researchers at the University …

“New research demonstrates a way to use quantum properties of light to transmit information, a key step on the path to the next generation of computing and communications systems. Researchers at the University of Rochester and Cornell University have taken …

“It’s still more science fiction than science fact, but perfect energy efficiency may be one step closer due to new research at the University of Rochester. In order to make a car run, a car’s engine burns gasoline …

“University physical scientists synthesize new superconducting material, developing a process that may help ‘break down barriers and open the door to many potential applications.’ Compressing simple molecular solids with hydrogen at extremely high pressures, University of Rochester engineers and physicists …

“Work shows the innovative fiber—made of seven capillaries surrounding a hollow core—may be a promising platform for quantum information processing and other applications. An innovative optical fiber greatly reduces the “noise” interfering with the signals it transmits compared …

“Rochester team demonstrates new way to control light as it moves through integrated circuits, paving a research avenue in communications, computing, and photonics research. Photonic integrated circuits that use light instead of electricity for computing and signal processing promise greater …
