Superconducting qubits—bits of quantum information—have been widely considered a promising technology for moving quantum ...

Two independent research teams have each demonstrated collisional quantum gates using fermionic atoms: a long-sought ...

Intel Capital is among the backers of Israeli quantum computing startup Q-Factor, which has just raised $24 million of seed funding in pursuit of a million-qubit system based around cooled neutral ...

Few concepts in physics are as familiar, yet as enigmatic, as time. In Einstein's theory of relativity, time is not absolute: ...

We think of it as rigid, smooth, and unidirectional – the arrow of time flies straight and true, and all we can do is go ...

Collisional quantum gates based on fermionic atoms have been realized independently by researchers in Germany and Switzerland ...

A tiny silica bead, just 100 nanometers across, sits suspended in a vacuum and vibrates under the grip of laser light. Those vibrations might sound like a small detail, but in this case they are the ...

Quantum optics and x‐ray photonics represent rapidly advancing realms of research that intertwine the principles of quantum mechanics with the unique properties of high‐energy photons. These fields ...

Quantum optics investigates the behaviour of light and its interactions with matter at the quantum level, revealing phenomena that are absent in classical descriptions. This field encompasses studies ...

Once a baffling theory, quantum mechanics has evolved into a driving force behind modern technology and frontier research.

As quantum computers continue to advance, many of today’s encryption systems face the risk of becoming obsolete. A powerful alternative—quantum cryptography—offers security based on the laws of ...

In a recent gift to the Quantum Scholars program, local optics company Meadowlark Optics is generously supporting $70,000 in scholarships for undergraduates exploring the quantum field at the ...
