The Royal Swedish Science Academy has awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics to three scientists. The laureates are Pierre Agostini of The Ohio State University, Columbus, USA, Ferenc Krausz working at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics in Garching and the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in Munich, Germany, and Anne L'Huillier of Lund University in Sweden. The Nobel Prize committee recognized their achievements in experimental methods for generating extremely short, attosecond, pulses of light to study the behaviour of electrons in atoms and molecules.

The 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to three scientists working on experimental and theoretical aspects of quantum mechanics. As set out in the verdict of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, the prize was awarded "for experiments with entangled photons, establishing violations of Bell's inequality and pioneering quantum computing".

In today's world of rapidly developing technologies, a particular group of seventeen chemical elements is becoming increasingly important technologically, and thus economically.

Normal", that is visible light, is a type of electromagnetic wave. The distinguishing feature of each wave is its length or frequency.

Tegoroczna nagroda Nobla z fizyki dotyczy, podobnie jak w ubiegłym roku, odkryć dokonanych w tych właśnie dziedzinach, które stawiają pytania dotyczące zagadnień fundamentalnych dla naszego rozumienia wszechświata.

The 2018 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences for "for groundbreaking inventions in the field of laser physics".

A diffraction grating is an optical instrument with many applications in scientific  research. The most important one is spectral analysis, which, in other words, means analysis of the chemical composition of materials.

'Liquid crystals' are advanced materials commonly used in modern technology. They are common in consumer electronic devices where they serve to present information as digits, letters, symbols and images. These so-called displays are used both in the simplest of gadgets as well as in color TVs, monitors, tablets, phones, etc.
