Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, have the potential of outperforming classical systems on some tasks. Instead of storing information as bits, ...

Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space ...

This polymer-based system shows that coherent quantum behavior can be designed into stable, tunable, solution-processable materials compatible with real devices. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Quantum ...

Ultracold atoms have successfully mimicked a fundamental quantum effect normally found in electronic circuits.

Tiny 3D-printed “light cages” are giving researchers a new way to catch and hold individual particles of light on a chip, a ...

The group of Prof. Xiao-Song Ma at Nanjing University has demonstrated the faithful teleportation from telecom photons to erbium-ion based quantum memory. The key elements for this achievement are the ...

Quantum physics keeps challenging our intuition. Researchers have shown that joint measurements can be carried out on distant particles, without the need to bring them together. This breakthrough ...

The concept of quantum entanglement is emblematic of the gap between classical and quantum physics. Referring to a situation in which it is impossible to describe the physics of each photon separately ...

A new study in Nature Physics has turned an old problem on its head by reporting a way to use the noisy interactions between ...
