A new breakthrough by Australian and international scientists shows that errors inside quantum machines are not just fleeting ...

A team of Australian and international scientists has, for the first time, created a full picture of how errors unfold over ...

Quantum information science is no longer confined to chalkboards and controlled laboratory tests. You now see working quantum ...

Over the past decades, quantum physicists and engineers have developed numerous technologies that harness the principles of quantum mechanics to push the boundaries of classical information science.

It’s not easy to study quantum systems — collections of particles that follow the counterintuitive rules of quantum mechanics. Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle, a cornerstone of quantum theory, says ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. It’s not easy to study quantum systems—collections of particles that follow the counterintuitive rules of quantum mechanics.

The group of Prof. Xiao-Song Ma at Nanjing University has demonstrated the faithful teleportation from telecom photons to erbium-ion based quantum memory. The key elements for this achievement are the ...

Physicists have used Doppler-shifted nuclear resonant absorbers to form a nuclear frequency comb, enabling a quantum memory in the notoriously difficult X-ray range. Light is an excellent carrier of ...

Building on a landmark algorithm, researchers propose a way to make a smaller and more noise-tolerant quantum factoring circuit for cryptography. The most recent email you sent was likely encrypted ...
