Exotic quantum rifts have been created with charged atoms, and they exist in a superposition of being in two places at once. This is a first step towards better understanding the behaviour of such ...

Recent headlines have proclaimed that Chinese scientists have hacked "military-grade encryption" using quantum computers, sparking concern and speculation about the future of cybersecurity.

Chinese researchers say they have become the first people to use a quantum computer to compromise the type of password-based security system widely employed in critical industries such as defense.

Quantum entanglement is one seriously long-distance relationship. Quantum entanglement is a fascinating, counterintuitive phenomenon where two subatomic particles remain deeply connected, even if ...

Nov. 4, 2024 — Nanoscale 3D transistors made from ultrathin semiconductor materials can operate more efficiently than silicon-based devices, leveraging quantum mechanical properties to ...

In their paper, titled “Quantum Annealing Public Key Cryptographic Attack Algorithm Based on D-Wave Advantage,” the ...

If the universe isn’t locally real, that has implications for what’s possible through quantum phenomena. For over 100 years now, quantum mechanics has rattled the cage of everything we’ve ...

From subatomic particles to complex molecules, quantum systems hold the key to understanding how the universe works. But there's a catch: when you try to model these systems, that complexity ...

Nov. 6, 2024 — Supersolids are a new form of quantum matter that has only recently been demonstrated. The state of matter can be produced artificially in ultracold, dipolar quantum gases.

A new proposal borrows from the principles of quantum mechanics and a technique called "wavelength multiplexing" to hypothesize an ultra-dense new storage format. When you purchase through links ...

The development of quantum computers will make everything "happen better", a researcher at a top university has said. A team from Oxford University’s department of physics are among researchers ...
