Advancement of next-gen devices has been hampered by a lack of diagnostic tools. But researchers in Germany are scaling that hurdle with an approach to capturing space-time imaging of electronic circuitry at different frequency domains.

Using digital displays together with 3D structured illumination microscopy, a team from Peking University in China is seeing living cells and cellular structures in unprecedented detail. And it’s laying the groundwork for even more biological discoveries.

A new theoretical model created by physicists in Germany introduces flying qubits, basically demonstrating how the information exchange between them is possible using photons to deliver quantum information.
