Annual sales have fallen below the $1 billion mark for the first time, with a year-on-year decline of 24% and a pre tax loss of up to $162 million. As an industry leader, IPG's financial report not only reflects the deep adjustment faced by the ind...

A team of researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Optoelectronics, Systems Technology and Image Development and Karlsruhe Institute of Technology are using single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) arrays to achieve three-dimensional (3D) quantum ghost imaging.The new method, called "asynchronous detection," produces the lowest photon dose of any measurement and can be used to image light-sensitive...

Quantum optics is a complex field where theoretical and experimental physicists collaborate to achieve breakthroughs in explaining subatomic level phenomena.Recently, Farokh Mivehvar from the University of Innsbruck used the most comprehensive model in quantum optics, the Dicke model, to study the interaction between two groups of atoms in a quantized field. This new study makes it possible to obs...
