The resolution of light microscopes has been given a huge boost thanks to the clever use of a common phenomenon in quantum physics.

describes correlations that exist between objects that have a shared history, prior to being observed. Just as two shoes bought at a store are correlated to fit a right foot and a left foot, particles can be mathematically correlated in a variety of ways too.

In QMC, the particles involved were photons, or light particles, which are known as biphotons once they've been entangled in a pair. Ordinarily, light with shorter wavelengths also carries more energy, which at a certain point can damage the cells being studied. Think about the difference between harmless, long length radio waves, versus the more powerful, short length ultraviolet rays that can break DNA and cause sunburn.process effectively halves the wavelength, it doesn't increase the energy of the individual photons.medical engineer Lihong Wang, from the California Institute of Technology .
