New boost in quantum technologies

Researchers at the University of Stuttgart were able to detect qubits in two-dimensional materials for the first time.  Quantum computers or quantum sensors consist of materials that are completely different to their classical predecessors. These […]

When memory qubits and photons get entangled

Scientists at the University of Bonn have been able for the first time to demonstrate quantum entanglement between a stationary qubit, i.e. a two-state quantum system, and a photon with direct coupling to an optical […]
