Chinese researchers report on a compact quantum microsatellite that achieves secure space-to-ground communications through quantum key distribution (QKD) with portable ground stations. The microsatellite, weighing just 23 kilograms, represents a significant reduction in size and […]
To introduce quantum networks into the marketplace, engineers must overcome the fragility of entangled states in a fiber cable and ensure the efficiency of signal delivery. Now, scientists at Qunnect Inc. in Brooklyn, New York, […]
My new article, “Quantum Entanglement of Optical Photons: The First Experiment, 1964–67,” is intended to convey the spirit of a small research project that reaches into uncharted territory. The article breaks with tradition, as it […]
Diraq has achieved a significant milestone by demonstrating consistent and repeatable operation with above 99% fidelity of two-qubit gates in their SiMOS (silicon metal-oxide-semiconductor) quantum dot platform. This achievement is crucial for the reliability and […]
Since it was first released in 2017, IBM has made scores of releases of the Qiskit software with a focus on improving it in three different aspects. These include functionality, in order to make it […]
A multi-institutional team of scientists in the United States, led by physicist Peng Wei at the University of California, Riverside, has developed a new superconductor material that could potentially be used in quantum computing and […]
A 3D quantum spin liquid has been discovered in the vicinity of a member of the langbeinite family. The material’s specific crystalline structure and the resulting magnetic interactions induce an unusual behavior that can be […]
