Some things are easier to achieve if you're not alone. As researchers from the University of Rostock, Germany have shown, this very human insight also applies to the most fundamental building blocks ...

An international research team has controlled hybrid electron-photon quantum states in helium atoms. Control of these special quantum states was enabled by the pulse formation of very intense, extreme ...

Photon blockade is a quintessential phenomenon in quantum optics, wherein a strongly nonlinear system prevents the absorption of additional photons once a single photon is present, effectively ...

A group of South Korean researchers has successfully developed an integrated quantum circuit chip using photons (light particles). This achievement is expected to enhance the global competitiveness of ...

The experimental layout of the sender Alice and the receiver Bob. Alice’s setup contains the excitation and collection setup of the single photon source, and a Sagnac-like polarization modulator for ...

Alfredo has a PhD in Astrophysics and a Master's in Quantum Fields and Fundamental Forces from Imperial College London. Alfredo has a PhD in Astrophysics and a Master's in Quantum Fields and ...

Scientists have finally unlocked a way to identify the elusive W state of quantum entanglement, solving a decades-old problem and opening paths to quantum teleportation and advanced quantum ...

Let me tell you about my book "Fields and Their Quanta: Making Sense of Quantum Foundations," published last year by Springer. It's technical, but I'll describe it in English. Scientists agree the ...

Classical physics theories suggest that when two or more electromagnetic waves interfere destructively (i.e., with their electric fields canceling each other out), they cannot interact with matter. In ...

Quantum technologies are cutting-edge systems that can process, transfer, or store information leveraging quantum mechanical ...

2025 is the Year of Quantum Science and Technology. Armed with deep research and timely dose of EU funding, what began as a risky idea in Copenhagen has become one of Europe's most scientifically and ...
