Industrial inspection: laser-driven neutron source replaces particle accelerator
X-ray inspection of large components such as bridges or shipping containers has been difficult to realise until now, as intense X-rays can only be generated using particle accelerators. A compact laser-based neutron source for industrial use is now being developed as part of a joint project.

Light and electrons: accelerating electronic circuits 1000-fold
The smallest functional unit of an integrated circuit is the transistor, whose switching speeds are subject to physical limits. Researchers are now working on an alternative approach with plasmonic circuits. For the first time, a new type of plasmonic component can be modulated with light and thus could form the basis for optical circuits.

Conventional and quantum internet in the same fiber optic network
The secure transmission of sensitive data via a fiber optic network is set to become a reality in the future with the so-called quantum internet. Researchers at the University of Hannover have now succeeded in transmitting entangled photons simultaneously with conventional laser pulses on a single data channel in an optical fiber.
