Sensing, Repeating Data May Be Up-Ended by Argonne Quantum Research, Q-NEXT

Researchers around the world are exploring how the smallest bits of matter and energy, such as atoms, electrons and photons, can relay information by making essential use of their quantum properties. These unique properties are described by a branch of physics called quantum mechanics, which was originally devised to explain phenomena at the atomic and subatomic scales, but is now central to our understanding of all matter. At the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory, quantum information science (QIS) is a burgeoning discipline that stands to revolutionize computing, science and communication.
