Watching gold switch between order and disorder

Watching gold switch between order and disorder

Researchers from Matériaux et Phénomènes Quantiques laboratory have directly observed, for the first time, a reversible phase transition between amorphous and crystalline states in ultra-small gold nanoparticles. Their findings reveal that the atomic structure of gold...

On-chip generation of spatial entanglement

On-chip generation of spatial entanglement

The QITE team just published in Phys. Rev. Lett. its work on the generation of spatial entanglement in nonlinear waveguide arrays, in collaboration with C2N and INPHYNI. Combining the generation and manipulation of complex quantum states of light on a single chip is a...
