NASA today sent out invitations to journalists for a tour of its Quantum Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, a joint project with NASA, Google, and the Universities Space Research Association located at NASA Ames Research Center in Silicon Valley.
Researchers from the Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT) at the National University of Singapore and the University of Seville in Spain have reported the most extreme 'entanglement' between pairs of photons ever seen in the lab.
Scientist Eric Ladizinsky compares advent of new technology to discovery of fire
Quantum physics theory has an odd but fundamental quirk: atoms in a quantum state aren't supposed to move as long as you're measuring them. It sounds preposterous, but Cornell University researchers have just demonstrated that it's real.
The first multi-qubit computer with protection against decoherence (noise that prevents the computer from functioning properly) has been developed by an international team of scientists.
Scientist show how to make atoms swing to the beat (frequency).
Scientists at IBM Research have achieved major advances in quantum computing device performance that they say may accelerate the realization of a practical,
D-Wave Systems has carried out a calculation involving 84 qubits on its D-Wave One quantum computing system, Technology Review Physics arXiv blog
By 2017, quantum physics will help reduce the energy consumption of our computers and cellular phones by up to a factor of 100. For research and industry, the power consumption of transistors is a key issue. The next revolution will likely come from tunnel-FET, a technology that takes advantage of a phenomenon referred to as "quantum tunneling."
(PhysOrg.com) -- Engineers and physicists at Harvard have managed to capture light in tiny diamond pillars embedded in silver, releasing a stream of single photons at a controllable rate.
École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) physicists have developed a new theory that shows that dot symmetry in quantum dots (semiconductors that
Scientists have demonstrated a new technique that dramatically simplifies quantum circuits, bringing quantum computers closer to reality.
Researchers at the University of British Columbia (UCB) and the University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB) have made a major advance in predicting and
Physicists at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics have succeeded in manipulating atoms individually in a lattice of light and arranging them in
Quantum computers are computers that exploit the weird properties of matter at extremely small scales. Many experts believe that a full-blown quantum computer could perform calculations that would be hopelessly time consuming on classical computers, but so far, quantum computers have proven hard to build. Researchers have planned an experiment that, if it worked, would offer strong evidence that quantum computers can do things that classical computers can
