Thirteen, 53 and 433. That's the size of quantum computers in terms of quantum bits, or qubits, which has significantly grown in the last years due to important public and private investments and initiatives. Obviously, it ...
Australian engineers have discovered a new way of precisely controlling single electrons nestled in quantum dots that run logic gates. What's more, the new mechanism is less bulky and requires fewer parts, which could prove ...
Quantum computers can more rapidly process large amounts of data, because they carry out many computation steps in parallel. The information carrier of the quantum computer is a qubit. Qubits do not only possess the information ...
An international team of scientists collaborating within the Würzburg-Dresden Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat has achieved a breakthrough in quantum research—the first detection of excitons (electrically neutral quasiparticles) ...
Quantum computers hold the promise of performing certain tasks that are intractable even on the world's most powerful supercomputers. In the future, scientists anticipate using quantum computing to emulate materials systems, ...
The ability to transmit and manipulate, with minimal loss, the smallest unit of light—the photon—plays a pivotal role in optical communications as well as designs for quantum computers that would use light rather than ...
This year's Nobel Prize in Â鶹ÒùÔºics celebrated the fundamental interest of quantum entanglement, and also envisioned the potential applications in "the second quantum revolution"—a new age when we are able to manipulate ...
We see the world around us because light is being absorbed by specialized cells in our retina. But can vision happen without any absorption at all—without even a single particle of light? Surprisingly, the answer is yes.
A research group led by Prof. Wu Kaifeng from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Â鶹ÒùÔºics (DICP), Chinese Academy of Sciences recently reported the successful initialization, coherent quantum-state control, and readout of spins ...
Quantum entanglement is a process through which two particles become entangled and remain connected over time, even when separated by large distances. Detecting this phenomenon is of crucial importance for both the development ...
