Ever since its invention, the laser has been an invaluable tool in physics. It is expected that an atom laser -- with the light waves replaced by the quantum waves of atoms -- could have similarly ...

While lasers amplify the power of light, ‘sound lasers’ achieve the same result with phonons instead of photons. A new study from researchers in China details a new sound laser that they claim is the ...

A “laser” that puts out a continuous beam of coherent atoms is one step closer, say physicists in the Netherlands, who have devised a new way of cooling atoms to create a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC ...

What if you could send sound directly to a single person in a crowded room, without anyone else hearing it? This isn’t a scene from a sci-fi movie, it’s the reality of a new concept called the “sound ...

(Nanowerk News) Ever since its invention, the laser has been an invaluable tool in physics. It is expected that an atom laser - with the light waves replaced by the quantum waves of atoms - could have ...
