Topological matter in optical lattices

Researchers at the Joint Quantum Institute have shown that an optical lattice system exhibits a never-before-seen quantum state called a topological semimetal. This semimetal can undergo a new type of phase transition to a topological insulator.Read More

Adding Up Photons with a TES

Scientists have demonstrated that a superconducting detector is capable of counting the number of as many as 1,000 photons in a single pulse of light with an accuracy limited mainly by the quantum noise of the laser source.Read More
