TEYU, a long-established supplier of global industrial laser cooling solutions, has achieved a new production milestone: the ...

In a world where lasers are sci-fi's weapon of choice for melting away an enemy spaceship (sometimes even translating to the real world), researchers at the University of Washington have swum against ...

A research team at Singapore’s Nanyang Technological University (NTU) has successfully used a laser to cool down a semiconductor material known as Cadmium Sulfide. The results of the recently ...

Cooling molecules with lasers is harder than cooling individual atoms with lasers. The very process of laser cooling, in which atoms are buffeted by thousands of photons, was thought by many to be ...

The process of cooling materials to cryogenic temperatures is often expensive and messy. One successful method is laser cooling, where photons interact with the atoms in some way to dampen their ...

Laser cooling has emerged as a transformative methodology for controlling the motion of atoms and molecules, utilising the momentum of light to reduce thermal motion at ultra‐low temperatures. This ...

Using a laser-cooling technique that could one day allow scientists to observe quantum behavior in large objects, MIT researchers have cooled a coin-sized object to within one degree of absolute zero.

Slow motion: artistic illustration showing snippets of motion of an antihydrogen atom in the ALPHA magnetic trap, before and after laser cooling. The grey tracks are before cooling and the blue tracks ...

How can light be used to cool atoms and molecules? How can light be used to cool atoms and molecules? Lasers are known to burn things, fix eyes, and dance on powerpoint presentations. But they can ...

Laser cooling and optical refrigeration are advanced techniques that utilise the interaction of laser light with matter to remove thermal energy from solids. Based on the principles of anti-Stokes ...

A bit over 25 years ago ago, probably late 1991 or very early 1992, when I was a still a student at Williams, I saw a talk by Claude Cohen-Tannoudji, and was absolutely blown away. He explained the ...
