• Researchers Find Way to Enhance Photon Entanglement

  …ghly, a plasmon is a photon with an electric add-on that manifests itself after the photon comes in contact with electrons of metals. A wave of plasmons appears on the border between metal and a dielectric when a light beam shines on them. The electric field between the metal and dielectric layers becomes so dense that non-linear (at le…
