Santa Barbara, Calif.–A research team at the University of California at Santa Barbara (UCSB) has proved that a “dead” time exists between emission of photons from a single quantum dot. The ...

A research team affiliated with UNIST has successfully demonstrated the experimental creation of collective quantum ...

If one were to think of this pulse as discrete quanta of photon particles, it’d seem to break causality, but as a wave function within quantum physics this is perfectly acceptable.

Physicists have manipulated individual particles of light, photons, under ultra-stable laboratory conditions. They split a ...

Single-photon emitters quantum mechanically connect quantum bits (or qubits) between nodes in quantum networks. They are typically made by embedding rare-earth elements in optical fibers at ...

One approach significantly increases the amount of information that can be encoded in a single photon; the other improves the stability of the quantum signal over long distances. Both methods rely ...

Hybrid structures formed between organic molecules and inorganic quantum dots can accomplish unique photophysical transformations by taking advantage of their disparate properties. The electronic ...

The new interface paves the way for connecting quantum devices. Quantum networks are often described as the next stage of the ...

Quantum scientists in Innsbruck have taken a major leap toward building the internet of the future. Using a string of calcium ions and finely tuned lasers, they created quantum nodes capable of ...

Quantum technologies, devices that work by leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could outperform classical technologies in ...
