U.S., China’s Quantum Ambitions
U.S., China’s Quantum Computing Ambitions. If perception is reality, China is in the lead for the race to being the world leader in quantum computing technology. With the December 21st, 2018, signing into law of the U.S.’s National Quantum Computing Initiative Act, perception may not equal such reality. From quantum communications to quantum sensing research […]
Quantum Computing Cloud
Quantum Computing Cloud. Harvard’s John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences researchers have shifted the frequency of photons using microwaves. Using a molecule-like photonic system built with lithium niobate on a chip, the team demonstrated that light’s frequency and phase could be controlled by programmable microwave signals. Further, the team was able to show […]
