The collaboration of TU Wien with research groups in China has resulted in a crucial building block for a new kind of quantum computer: The realization of a novel type of quantum logic gate makes it ...

A team of physicists has uncovered a surprising new way to explore one of science's greatest challenges: uniting the two fundamental theories that explain how our universe works—Einstein's theory of ...

A quantum internet is only as useful as its reach, and in a first, researchers created more than a million qubit pairs across 100 kilometers of fiber.

A research team in China has built a quantum dot device that produces photon pairs with record-setting purity, achieving a two-photon fraction of 0.983(1). The work, published in Nature Materials, ...

The experimental layout of the sender Alice and the receiver Bob. Alice’s setup contains the excitation and collection setup of the single photon source, and a Sagnac-like polarization modulator for ...

A pair of photons enters an optical maze, and sometimes they leave as something new. Not new in the everyday sense, since both were still photons when they came out.

In the 1971 film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, Willy Wonka teleports a larger-than-life candy bar (and a small child) across the room into a television set. The idea of instantly transporting ...

Nuclear magnetic resonance –based co-magnetometers are essential tools for applications ranging from inertial navigation to geophysical exploration and biomedical sensing. Their performance critically ...

The demonstration, which achieved record entanglement swapping rates, combined Qunnect's room-temperature quantum hardware with Cisco's quantum networking software stack. This milestone brings ...
