Shaped quantum light is turning ordinary photons into powerful tools for the future of technology.

Researchers at the Institute for Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo have developed a method to back up quantum ...

Quantum computers rely on particles behaving in ways that defy everyday logic. Qubits can exist in multiple states at once, interact instantly through entanglement, and collapse when observed. This ...

On October 8, 2024, the field of physics was plunged into controversy. That day, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for discoveries not involving black holes, cosmology, or strange new subatomic ...

Everyday life on the internet is insecure. Hackers can break into bank accounts or steal digital identities. Driven by AI, attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Quantum cryptography ...

On Tuesday the field of quantum mechanics received a thoughtful 100th-birthday present from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences: three shiny new medals, 11 million Swedish kronor (to be divided ...

John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis were recognized for work that made behaviors of the subatomic realm observable at a larger scale. By Katrina Miller and Ali Watkins John Clarke, ...

For the first time, scientists have observed electrons in graphene behaving like a nearly perfect quantum fluid, challenging a long-standing puzzle in physics. By creating ultra-clean samples, the ...

James is a published author with multiple pop-history and science books to his name. He specializes in history, space, strange science, and anything out of the ordinary.View full profile James is a ...

Scientists have uncovered how close we can get to perfect optical precision using AI, despite the physical limitations imposed by light itself. By combining physics theory with neural networks trained ...
