Quantum communication systems are emerging solutions to transmit information between devices in a network leveraging quantum ...

Astronomers detect a laser-like signal coming from colliding galaxies 8 billion light-years away. A cosmic mystery.

A team of physicists has demonstrated that a microwave quantum network linking two superconducting qubits can maintain coherent operation even when its transmission line sits at 4 Kelvin, a ...

Microwave photonic signal processing is an emerging field that exploits the interplay between microwave signals and photonic components to achieve functionalities that exceed the limitations of ...

Modern-day communications rely on both fibre-optic cables and wireless radiofrequency (RF) microwave communications. Reaching higher data transmission capabilities is going to require technologies ...

Vector modulation is increasingly used in microwave and satellite communication applications, but generating vector-modulated signals for measurement can be difficult and expensive. However, using ...

Optoelectronic oscillators (OEOs) represent a pivotal technology at the intersection of photonics and microwave engineering. By exploiting the long delay lines provided by optical fibres and high‐Q ...

Physicists have coaxed a cloud of quantum spins into doing something that should not happen in ordinary materials: they light up with microwaves and simply keep going. Instead of fading away, the ...

The achievement provides a promising pathway towards small-footprint ultra-low-noise microwave generation for applications such as high-speed communication, atomic clocks, and autonomous vehicles. A ...

The Photonics Research Group and IDlab, two imec research groups at Ghent University, and imec, a world-leading research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, have published ...

Here’s the thing about radio signals. There is wild and interesting stuff just getting beamed around all over the place. Phrased another way, there are beautiful signals everywhere for those with ears ...
