Researchers from IQOQI-Vienna published the paper “Experimental Two‐Way Communication with One Photon” where they present an experimental demonstration of a more efficient communication between two distant parties. This can lead to the realization of new […]

Creating different kinds of light with manipulable quantum properties

In a paper titled “Multiphoton quantum-state engineering using conditional measurements“, researchers at the Louisiana State University (LSU) describe a quantum manipulation and control of light, which might have applications in imaging, simulation, metrology, computation, communication, […]

Chinese satellite has been extending QKD

Three years after its launch, the Chinese satellite nicknamed “Micius”  has steadily been extending the reach of an encryption technology that is practically unbreakable. Chinese researchers proved it was possible for photons sharing quantum entanglement […]

First three-photon color entanglement

Researchers at University of Illinois have constructed a quantum-mechanical state in which the colors of three photons are entangled with each other. The state is a special combination, called a W state, that retains some […]

Google Quantum Supremacy?

There have been a lot of hype and buzz since last week. At least, here is a smart article written by a smart guy. Read it up to the end – it’s worth it. Scott’s […]

How to stop a quantum wave?

A research team at University of Buffalo has developed a “traffic light” that can bring quantum waves to a halt. The scientists isolated a specially built nano-conductor at an extremely cold temperature — minus 273 […]

Quantum biosensors with DNA-stabilized metal quantum clusters

Project BioSensing, a collaboration among two of Germany’s Fraunhofer institutes and Dutch Leiden University’s Institute of Physics, was developed to overcome the limits of modern biosensors by applying quantum technology. DNA-stabilized metal quantum clusters (QC-DNAs), […]
