An international research team has succeeded for the first time in measuring the electron spin in matter—i.e., the curvature of space in which electrons live and move—within “kagome materials,” a new class of quantum materials. […]
Quantum information (QI) processing may be the next game changer in the evolution of technology, by providing unprecedented computational capabilities, security and detection sensitivities. Qubits, the basic hardware element for quantum information, are the building […]

Findings published in Nature settle the dispute: phonons can be chiral. This fundamental concept, discovered using circular X-ray light, sees phonons twisting like a corkscrew through quartz. Click to rate this post! [Total: 0 Average: […]
A weird and wonderful array of technologies are competing to become the standard-bearer for quantum computing. The latest contender wants to encode quantum information in sound waves. One thing all quantum computers have in common […]
The Quantum Photonics Laboratory at Heriot-Watt University is currently recruiting up to 3 post-docs. Positions are available on the following topics: Post-doc positions in spectroscopy, quantum optics, and 2D correlated materials Submitted by gerardot on […]
One of the most high-profile mysteries in physics today is what scientists refer to as the “Strong CP Problem.” Stemming from the puzzling phenomenon that neutrons do not interact with electric fields despite being made […]
Insider Brief Superconducting diode research could help scale up quantum computers for industry use. The device uses three Josephson junctions, which are made by sandwiching pieces of non-superconducting material between superconductors. Critical Quote: “We need […]
Guest Post from James Sanders Quantum computing enjoyed a relatively tranquil start to the year as generative artificial intelligence overshadowed quantum in technology media. Fundamentally, this was a good thing—getting out of the spotlight gives […]
Insider Brief The European Commission will provide up to €8.1 billion in public funding for microelectronics and communication technologies. The funding will contribute to advance of sectors, including quantum computing, communications (5G and 6G), autonomous […]
