A team of researchers in Switzerland, Germany and the US has observed clear evidence of quantum mechanical interference behaviour in collisions between a methane molecule and a gold surface. As well ...

This project delves into the principles of interference, particularly focusing on how light waves interact with very thin films, like those seen in soap bubbles or oil slicks. The post is in ...

Young's experiment showed interference of light. As only waves demonstrate interference, this confirmed that light was a wave motion not a stream of particles. Watch this video for a practical ...

In a discovery that challenges conventional optics, scientists have managed to make a laser beam cast its own shadow—a feat previously thought impossible, as light typically passes through other light ...

Researchers have discovered brand new interference patterns in twisted two-dimensional tungsten ditelluride lattices. These so-called moir patterns can be tuned to look like periodic spots or even one ...

Imagine two photons, massless particles of light, that are intertwined in a ... have developed a technique that suggests quantum interference could enable the highest possible precision in ...
