RIKEN physicists have created an exotic quantum state in a device with a disk-like geometry for the first time, showing that edges are not required. This demonstration opens the way for realizing other novel electronic […]
For two decades, it was believed that a possible quantum spin liquid was discovered in a synthetically produced material. In this case, it would not follow the laws of classical physics even on a macroscopic […]
Solids can be melted by heating, but in the quantum world it can also be the other way around: In a joint effort, an experimental team led by Francesca Ferlaino in Innsbruck, Austria, and a […]
Insider Brief QCWare launches software-as-a-service (SaaS) quantum chemistry platform designed to dramatically accelerate pharmaceutical, chemical, and materials discovery. The company has named the platform, Promethium. The technology has been designed to make use of the […]
Insider Brief Defense Scoop is reporting that the Secretary of Defense is requesting $75 million to accelerate quantum. The initiative aims to speed up the commercialization and operationalization of quantum devices for Pentagon purposes. Pentagon […]
This week, the Texas Legislature will take up SB 18, a bill to ban the granting of tenure at all public universities in Texas, including UT Austin and Texas A&M. (Those of us who already […]
Perturbing electron spins in a magnet usually results in excitations called “spin waves” that ripple through the magnet like waves on a pond that’s been struck by a pebble. In a new study, Rice University […]
The nano-scale electronic parts in devices like smartphones are solid, static objects that once designed and built cannot transform into anything else. But physicists have reported the discovery of nano-scale devices that can transform into […]
An international team of researchers from Leibniz University Hannover (Germany), the University of Twente (Netherlands), and the start-up company QuiX Quantum has presented an entangled quantum light source fully integrated for the first time on […]
Kenna Hughes-Castleberry and Brian Lenahan, are interviewed by Yuval Boger about their new book – “On the shoulders of giants” – which tells the stories of ten lesser-known quantum greats. Kenna, Brian and Yuval spoke […]
