Maintaining Quantum Information Through Error Reduction

Maintaining Quantum Information Through Error Reduction.  Brining ions back into line to maintain their quantum information has been accomplished by physicists at ETH Zurich.  Quantum computing computation and quantum metrology stand to gain.  This report found at Phys.org…

Protecting Entanglement of Photons with Symmetry

Protecting Entanglement of Photons with Symmetry.   Research conducted at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology further proves quantum entanglement (quantum states) may be preserved when passing through nanoscale holes.  The quantum computing nexus is the preservation of quantum information when passing through these waveguides.  The waveguides are envisioned as quantum computing devices fundamental to a […]

First Quantum Key Distribution Network: Boston to D.C.

First Quantum Key Distribution Network: Boston to D.C.  Quantum Xchange has joined with Zayo Group to provide the United States’ first quantum key distribution network.  “Phio”, as the network has been called initially, will utilize 500 miles of fiber.  The QKD network is expected to provide “high capacity, low latency and inherent security…”  This report […]

The Purcell Effect: Key to Quantum Repeater

The Purcell Effect: Key to Quantum Repeater.  Placing an atom of rubidium between two mirrors could be the key to a reliable quantum repeater.  The reliable quantum repeater is a much sought after device as it will enable passing quantum information along a quantum network.  The Purcell Effect reveals itself when the atom, between two […]

TU Delft Lays Out Broad Plan for a Quantum Internet 

University research at TU Delft, Netherlands, has laid out a broad roadmap for a quantum internet.  The plan develops the quantum network around two concepts presently unknown to the current internet: (1) Entanglement’s synchronization capability between distant locations; and,  (2) entanglement’s inherent security, considered unbreakable. Engineering, computer science, and physics, all must come into agreement and collaborate closely to enable the increasing functionality of each stage.

NIST Device Measures Amount of Nothing

NIST Device Measures Amount of Nothing.  NIST has developed a portable device to measure extreme vacuum in a space.  Trapped ions, magneto-optical traps, and cold-atom vacuum standards (CAVS) all play a part in this aspect of quantum information science research and development. This report is found here at PHYS.ORG…

Quantum Computer in the Wrong Hands

Quantum Computer in the Wrong Hands.  “…intercept bank transfers, hack government databases, and destroy the technology that ensures private communications…”  The race is on to achieve quantum supremacy.  When?  Who? This report is found here at FINANCIAL REVIEW…  

Silicon Photonic Chips: Solving Two Challenges for Quantum Computing

Silicon computer chips are the foundation for nearly all computing devices today.  From your desktop, to the server room, back into your palm inside your smartphone, and circling Earth in the International Space Station, they’re everywhere.  Silicon has a well-established manufacturing base and supply chain.  However, Moore’s Law suggests we are at the close of […]
