Physicist Gabriele Grosso has been awarded a $1.35 million grant from the Moore foundation to pursue research aimed at turning quantum noise, usually an obstacle in quantum systems, into a usable resource. The funding is expected to support her work on harnessing noise effects for quantum technologies, an approach that could influence how researchers manage decoherence in quantum computing and sensing.
- 4CCNY physicists convert microwaves to light with 2D magnets▼A new bridge for quantum networks: CCNY physicists convert microwaves to light using 2D magnets
Physicists at the City College of New York report converting microwave signals into light using atomically thin 2D magnetic materials, a step toward connecting quantum devices. The advance could let distant quantum processors or sensors communicate through optical fiber, which transmits photons far more efficiently than microwaves. Researchers describe the work as a building block for future quantum networks.
- 5100 Years of Schrödinger's Equation▼100 Years Ago, Schrödinger’s Equation Shed Light on Quantum Physics
One hundred years ago, Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger formulated the wave equation that became a cornerstone of quantum mechanics, describing how quantum systems evolve over time. The centennial is prompting reflection on how the 1926 equation reshaped physics, underpinning modern chemistry, electronics and our understanding of the atomic world.
- 6Schrödinger's equation marks 100 years of shaping quantum science●100 years ago, Schrödinger’s equation shed light on quantum physics – scientists use it today to fine-tune chemical reactions
One hundred years after Erwin Schrödinger formulated his famous equation, physicists and chemists are marking the centenary of a breakthrough that underpins modern quantum mechanics. The equation describes how quantum systems evolve, and scientists now use it to model and fine-tune chemical reactions with remarkable precision. Commentators note its enduring influence spans from fundamental physics to practical chemistry, computing and materials science.
