This collage highlights several concepts proposed by 2024 NIAC Phase I awardees, including miniaturized interstellar spacecraft, a Venus glider, a water detoxifier for Mars, a solar-system-scale ...

One essential advantage is that this multiport interferometer is single-element, which not only reduces the size but also make it ultrastable when compared with previous multiport interferometers in ...

Physicists have created a quantum interferometer on an atom chip. This device can be used to explore the fundamentals of quantum theory by studying the interference pattern between two beams of atoms.

Who’s who: The quantum Alice in Wonderland would like to understand whether the many “Twindeldum-Twindeldees” she sees are really identical or not, and uses the new interferometer for this purpose.

The AIMS Interferometer represents over 20 years leading edge development resulting in easy to use, robust products, which have been specifically optimised for each measurement application. All ...

The current state of the art of embedded motion sensing is based around micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) devices. These miracles of microfabrication use tiny silicon structures, configured to ...

If you want to get the greatest benefit from a beam of light - whether to detect a distant planet or remedy an aberration in the human eye - you need to be able to measure its beam front information.

Closing the loop on a V8 piezo linear motor with a laser interferometer: resolution down to 0.15 nanometers is achievable. Here's how it works: https://www.pi-usa.us ...
