In 2024, a quantum state of light was successfully teleported through more than 30 kilometers (around 18 miles) of fiber ...

Slight temperature changes, imperceptible manufacturing imperfections, and heat generated by their own components can completely ruin an entire quantum quantum system-on-chip. Silicon photonics could ...

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory are helping to pave a path for the eventual discovery ...

A recent breakthrough in quantum light technology promises to revolutionize various sectors, from computing and communication to energy and biological sensing. This advancement builds on a series of ...

Researchers from the School of Physics at Wits University, working with collaborators from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, have demonstrated how quantum light can be engineered in space and ...

In the classical world, a beam of light is a smooth, continuous wave. In the quantum realm, however, photons manifest as the discrete constituents (quanta) of light. These photons can be carefully ...

Quantum light sources often produce inconsistent or contaminated single photons, limiting the reliability of quantum technologies. Researchers coated atomically thin tungsten diselenide with a uniform ...

A new chip-based quantum memory uses nanoprinted “light cages” to trap light inside atomic vapor, enabling fast, reliable storage of quantum information. The structures can be fabricated with extreme ...

Researchers from Wits University and Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona show how controlling the structure of photons in space and time enables tailored quantum states for next-generation communication ...
