Ph.D. candidate Petr Steindl creates complex structures of light using single photons. As a teenager, he wanted to study Czech poetry but decided on quantum physics. “Looking back, I am glad I switched fields,” he […]

Researchers use a new tool to help improve a key component in commercially produced quantum computing circuits. The team of scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Ames National Laboratory in partnership with the […]
When you turn on a lamp to brighten a room, you are experiencing light energy transmitted as photons, which are small, discrete quantum packets of energy. These photons must obey the sometimes strange laws of […]
It seems quantum mechanics and thermodynamics cannot be true simultaneously. In a new publication, UT researchers use photons in an optical chip to demonstrate how both theories can be true at the same time. They […]
EPFL scientists show that even a few simple examples are enough for a quantum machine-learning model, the “quantum neural networks,” to learn and predict the behavior of quantum systems, bringing us closer to a new […]
The Rydberg state is widespread in a variety of physical platforms such as atoms, molecules, and solids. In particular, Rydberg excitons are highly excited Coulomb-bound states of electron-hole pairs, first discovered in the semiconductor material […]
Have you ever been compelled to enter sensitive payment data on the website of an unknown merchant? Would you be willing to consign your credit card data or passwords to untrustworthy hands? Scientists from the […]
Researchers at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ) have invented a novel microwave isolator and have demonstrated, for the first time, its basic principle that enables small isolators; essential for future quantum computers. This […]
Scientists have made an important step toward developing computers advanced enough to simulate complex natural phenomena at the quantum level. While these types of simulations are too cumbersome or outright impossible for classical computers to […]
Students at the Faculty of Physics of the University of Warsaw (UW) and researchers from the QOT Center for Quantum Optical Technologies have developed an innovative method that allows the fractional Fourier Transform of optical […]
