Quantum Computing Taps Nucleus of Single Atom
April 17, 2013 Australian engineers have demonstrated that quantum information can be "written" onto the nucleus of a single atom and "read" out with incredible accuracy. The result was achieved using a silicon ... > full story -
Photons Run out of Loopholes: Quantum World Really Is in Conflict With Our Everyday Experience
April 15, 2013 Physicists have carried out an experiment with photons in which they have closed an important loophole. The researchers have thus provided the most complete experimental proof that the quantum world ... > full storyMore: -
Bose-Einstein Condensates Evaluated for Quantum Computers
April 11, 2013 Physicists have examined how Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) might be used to provide communication among the nodes of a distributed quantum computer. The researchers determined the amount of time ... > full story -
Advancing Secure Communications: A Better Single-Photon Emitter for Quantum Cryptography
April 9, 2013 In a development that could make the advanced form of secure communications known as quantum cryptography more practical, researchers have demonstrated a simpler, more efficient single-photon emitter ... > full story -
A Step Toward Optical Transistors?
April 9, 2013 Researchers have demonstrated a new way to control light in semiconductor ... > full story -
'Spooky Action at a Distance' Aboard the International Space Station
April 9, 2013 Albert Einstein famously described quantum entanglement as "spooky action at distance"; however, up until now experiments that examine this peculiar aspect of physics have been limited to relatively ... > full story -
Don't Call It Vaporware: Scientists Use Cloud of Atoms as Optical Memory Device
April 4, 2013 Talk about storing data in the cloud. Scientists have taken this to a whole new level by demonstrating that they can store visual images within quite an ethereal memory device -- a thin vapor of ... > full story -
Quantum Tricks Drive Magnetic Switching Into the Fast Lane
April 3, 2013 Researchers in the U.S. and Greece have found a new way to switch magnetism that is at least 1000 times faster than currently used in magnetic memory technologies. Magnetic switching is used to ... > full story -
Building Quantum States With Individual Silicon Atoms
April 3, 2013 By introducing individual silicon atom 'defects' using a scanning tunneling microscope, scientists have coupled single atoms to form quantum ... > full story -
Quantum Cryptography: On Wings of Light
April 3, 2013 Physicists have, for the first time, successfully transmitted a secure quantum code through the atmosphere from an aircraft to a ground ... > full story
