Python is convenient and flexible, yet notably slower than other languages for raw computational speed. The Python ecosystem has compensated with tools that make crunching numbers at scale in Python ...

As published Monday (Aug. 15) in Nature Materials, the research team used electron spin qubits as atomic-scale sensors, and also to effect the first experimental control of nuclear spin qubits in ...

One of the great flexibilities of Mac OS X is that the built-in Unix underpinnings give users a lot of freedom in developing new ways of accomplishing old tasks. As an example, a new document on Apple ...

Coherent Corp. has announced the launch of its 2D Collimator Array, an innovative optical assembly designed for use in optical circuit switches (OCS), which are increasingly vital for advanced data ...

Though radar is the more prevalent object detection system, the lesser-known ladar -- radar that uses lasers instead of radio frequencies -- produces a more detailed result. The problem though, is ...

Arrays of vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers boast properties such as narrow emission spectrum and a stable output wavelength. Jean-Francois Seurin and Chuni Ghosh of Princeton Optronics argue ...
