The film "Introduction to Holography" explains the principles of holography, focusing on how it differs from traditional photography by creating three-dimensional images. It discusses the role of wave ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2026.250149, discusses a quarter-wave geometric-phase ...

[Stoppi] has taken on a fascinating project involving the interference of thin layers, a phenomenon often observed in everyday life but rarely explored in such depth. This project delves into the ...

Complementarity A new twist on the double-slit experiment. (Courtesy: Shutterstock/Andrey VP) One of the most counterintuitive concepts in physics – the idea that quantum objects are complementary, ...

Scientists test Einstein’s quantum challenge with one atom, directly measuring when photon paths erase interference stripes.

When wave pass through each other, they interfere, producing neat effects. Artist Gary Drostle harnesses the interference patterns as light passes through rippling water to create fish pond mosaics.

An experiment measuring a single atom's recoil confirmed that observing a particle destroys interference, settling the ...

ANYONE who is experimentally familiar with the production of Liesegang rings in gelatine films and other allied phenomena might well feel tempted to believe that such periodical precipitates are to be ...
