Entanglement is as wondrous as it is useful. It describes systems where—counter to our everyday intuition of probability—the full state cannot be described as a product of its constituents, and the measurement of one portion of an entangled ensemble will affect the other parts instantaneously, regardless of the separation in space and time. Together with … Continue reading
Thanks to Tony Hallas for sending another amazing image of our universe! This is a picture of the Dumbbell Nebula (M27), located in the constellation Vulpecula. This nebula is about 1360 light-years from earth. This photograph was taken in California using Chroma astronomy filters.

Researchers at Nanyang Technological University of Singapore successfully demonstrated a multi-foci laser cutting technology for sapphire wafer separation, using Holo/Or multi-focal DOEs. Sapphire wafers are used for manufacturing LEDs. Unlike typical cases where the entire cross-section needs to be scanned with single or multiple passes, this team developed a new separation technique, using only partial thickness scanning, … Continue reading
