Swiss researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) have put forward a detailed plan of how faster and better defined qubits can be created. The central elements are magnetic atoms from the class of so-called […]
Certified Quantum Random Numbers from untrusted light
A team of researchers from Germany, Russia and UK has designed and experimentally demonstrated an ultrafast optical Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) that uses a totally untrusted photonic source. While considering completely general quantum attacks, […]
Silicon quantum dots using CMOS technology
Solid-state quantum computers require classical electronics to control and readout individual qubits and to enable fast classical data processing. Integrating both subsystems at deep cryogenic temperatures, where solid- state quantum processors operate best, may solve […]
German PlanQK develops AI on Quantum Computers
German Federal Ministry of the Economy has funded the €19m PlanQK project (Platform and Ecosystem for Quantum-Assisted Artificial Intelligence) in Quantum AI. The project has now 15 partners and 33 associated partners, including Siemens, Deutsche Telekom […]
Ultimate Precision: Scientists Reach Limit of Multi-Parameter Quantum Measurement With Zero Trade-Off
Chinese researchers showed that to achieve the highest precisions for multiple parameters at the same time requires the saturation of multiple Heisenberg uncertainty relations simultaneously. Real-life applications like magnetometry or quantum gyroscope typically involve precise […]
Pulsed laser with repetition rate of 57.8 GHz
The Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) announced that the research team at the Center for Opto-Electronic Materials and Devices was able to generate laser pulses at a rate at least 10,000 times higher than the […]
France announces a 1.8 billion euros Quantum Plan
The French President has just announced that the french research centers, start-ups and industrial groups will have a budget of 1.8 billion euros over five years. France has now a Quantum Plan. The French Quantum […]
Do simulations represent the real world at the atomic scale?
A team of scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory, the University of Chicago and the University of California, developed a groundbreaking validation protocol for simulations of the atomic structure of […]
Quantum Personality of The Year 2020 – Nominee: John Levy
John Levy, CEO of the New-York-based Seeqc start-up, is the fifth nominee of the ‘Quantum Personality of the Year 2020’. He co-founded SeeQC in 2018. From 2010-18 he served as the Chairman of BioLite, a […]
Drones to create local quantum networks
A team of Chinese researchers has used drones to create a prototype of a small airborne quantum network and to send entangled particles from one drone to another and from a drone to the ground. […]
