A new dual-function camera is aiding wildlife conservation efforts worldwide. Its developers in Turkey say it’s tailored to address the multifaceted challenges wildlife faces, including changing habitats and poaching.

In a two-for-one deal, researchers in New Mexico are taking a big step toward enabling quantum sensing and information processing technologies, thanks to their development of a chiral quantum light source they say could offer a more secure way to encode quantum information.

A team led by the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology is taking coherent and controllable laser technology to another level with the creation of spin-optical lasers made from a single atomic layer of tungsten disulfide.
