Two Photons Strongly Coupled by Glass Fibre

At the Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien), two photons were made to interact strongly using an ultra-thin glass fibre. This technique is an important new tool for quantum technology.

Two photons in free space do not interact. Light waves can pass through each other without having any influence on each…
