Researchers proposed methods to preserve the integrity of quantum bits—techniques that may become the key to practical quantum computing on a large scale. Read More »
Illuminating a metasurface with a laser can enable the rapid modulation of the polarization of terahertz light transmitted through the metasurface. Read More »
Time crystals realized in the so-called quasiperiodic regime hold promise for future applications in quantum computing and sensing. Read More »
Theorists proposed an idea they called quantum teleportation—a means of transferring the identity of one particle to another over some distance. Read More »
Tech giant Microsoft claimed in a recent press release to have made the first topological qubit–an important milestone in the development of quantum computers. But some experts say the firm’s claim has not been backed up by peer-reviewed research. Read More »
In 1964, Bell showed that quantum physics predicts correlations that violate certain inequalities. The work implied that quantum mechanics is not compatible with locality, even if there were “hidden variables” not accounted for in quantum theory. Read More »
The quantum properties of superconducting qubits might be improved by coating them with a noble metal such as gold. Read More »
A new high-performance quantum processor boasts 105 superconducting qubits and rivals Google’s acclaimed Willow processor. Read More »
Aharonov and Bohm proposed a scenario in which quantum particles experience electromagnetic effects even though there is no field in their immediate vicinity. Read More »
A new imaging technique can show the wave-like behavior of unconfined quantum particles. Read More »
