At the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, researchers have realized the swap of electron spins between distant quantum dots. The discovery brings us a step closer to future appl... Read more
The quest for a secure information network is on. Researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, have recently succeeded in boosting the storage time of quantum informati... Read more
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have “teleported” or transferred quantum information carried in light particles over 100 kilometers (km) of optical f... Read more
Light is an extremely useful tool for quantum communication, but it has one major disadvantage: it usually travels at the speed of light and cannot be kept in place. A team of scientists at... Read more
Packing single-photon detectors on an optical chip is a crucial step toward quantum-computational circuits A team of researchers has built an array of light detectors sensitive enough to reg... Read more
Say hello to the world’s first solid state quantum hard drive. Storing data in a state of quantum entanglement could hold enormous promise for securing our online information, but righ... Read more
Neither quantum computers nor quantum cryptography will become prevalent technologies without memory systems able to manipulate quantum information easily and effectively. The Faculty of Phy... Read more
“If you put my level of surprise on a scale from zero to 10, where 10 is very, very surprised, my answer would be zero.” In this month’s issue of Physics World, Jon Cartwri... Read more
ETH researchers cannot ”beam“ objects or humans of flesh and blood through space yet, a feat sometimes alluded to in science fiction movies. They managed, however, to teleport information fr... Read more
The stable results are an important step towards the quantum communication network of the future. Researchers have been able to teleport information from light to light at a quantum level fo... Read more
