Missing Photonic Link to Enable an All-Silicon Quantum Internet

…Researchers at Simon Fraser University have made a crucial breakthrough in the development of quantum technology…

…The research, describes their observations of silicon ‘T centre’ photon-spin qubits, an important milestone that unlocks immediate opportunities to construct massively scalable quantum computers and the quantum internet that will connect them… 

…Now the research published by Daniel Higginbottom, Alex Kurkjian, and co-authors provides proof of principle that T centres, a specific luminescent defect in silicon, can provide a ‘photonic link’ between qubits…
