Quantum communication has long promised unbreakable encryption, but the hardware has struggled to escape the lab. A new generation of laser-written glass chips is changing that equation, carving three ...

Photonic quantum processors, devices that can process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects and particles of light (photons), have shown promise for numerous applications, ranging from ...

Just a few years ago, many researchers in quantum computing thought it would take several decades to develop machines that could solve complex tasks, such as predicting how chemicals react or cracking ...

As quantum computers continue to advance, many of today's encryption systems face the risk of becoming obsolete. A powerful ...

A Princeton team has reported their new qubit lasts for over 1 millisecond, three times longer than the best ever reported in a lab setting, and nearly fifteen times longer than the industry standard ...

A laser-written glass chip shows how fragile quantum signals can be decoded with high stability and low loss, offering a new ...

Chinese researchers have developed the world's first large-scale quantum key distribution (QKD) network based on integrated ...

IBM announced two new quantum processors today, revealing that the company is still very much in the race to design a computer that could complete tasks beyond the reach of classical computing. The ...

Physicists in Leiden have built a microscope that can measure no fewer than four key properties of a material in a single scan, all with nanoscale precision. The instrument can even examine complete ...

A major new European initiative, Photonics for Quantum (P4Q), will launch in 2026 across 12 countries, marking a decisive step in Europe’s effort to accelerate quantum technology development and ...

Software giant Intel has decided that there is money to be had in making quantum chips which are based on whether or not a theoretical cat is potentially dead or alive, or just popped out for a bit.
