Scientists Generate Powerful UV Light on a Chip for Quantum Tech
Key Points: Researchers successfully generated milliwatt-level ultraviolet light directly on a tiny photonic chip. The team used a clever process to combine two red photons into one single UV photon. The researchers built a complex nanoscale waveguide using thin-film lithium niobate. This breakthrough paves the way for smaller, cheaper quantum computers and optical atomic clocks. Researchers from the University of Twente and Harvard University have...
