New qubit can be switched between storage and fast calculation modes
Researchers from the University of Basel and TU Eindhoven have produced a new type of qubit that can be switched from a stable idle mode to a fast calculation mode. The challenge for quantum computing […]
On-demand storage in integrated solid-state quantum memory
Researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) have demonstrated on-demand storage of photonic qubits in an integrated solid-state quantum memory for the first time. On-demand storage requires determination of the storage time after […]
High-dimensional quantum teleportation
A team at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) has demonstrated the teleportation of high-dimensional states in a three-dimensional six-photon system. Compared with two-dimensional systems, high-dimensional system quantum networks have the advantages […]
Electrons entanglement using heat
A joint group of scientists has demonstrated that temperature difference can be used to entangle pairs of electrons in superconducting structures. The researchers designed a device where a superconductor was layered withed graphene and metal […]
Experimental characterization of the energetics of quantum logic gates
Researchers at Universita degli Studi Roma Tre and University of Florence have characterized the energetic footprint of a two-qubit quantum gate from the perspective of non-equilibrium quantum thermodynamics. Despite the significant progress made towards the […]
Quantum Personality of the Year – Nominee: Ilyas Khan
Ilyas Khan, CEO of UK quantum startup Cambridge Quantum Computing, is the third nominee of the ‘Quantum Personality of the Year 2020’. He founded the company in 2014, when the wording ‘quantum’ was anything but trendy. […]
Better security proofs for QKD protocols
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) protocols are performed by sending a sizeable, but finite, number of quantum signals between the distant parties involved. Many QKD experiments, however, predict their achievable key rates using asymptotic formulas, which […]
