To help give researchers a view into the smallest interactions between individual cells in real time, Lumicks has raised $93 million to expand the use of its entry-level hardware, including tools for ...

Physicists of the University of Bonn have taken one more important hurdle on the path to what is known as a quantum computer: by using ‘laser tweezers’ they have succeeded in sorting up to seven atoms ...

Optical tweezers use laser light to manipulate small particles. A new method has been advanced using Stampede2 supercomputer simulations that makes optical tweezers safer to use for potential ...

Physicists have taken the first step towards building quantum computers out of individual molecules trapped with laser devices called optical tweezers. Two teams report their results in Science on 7 ...
