Scientists Mesh Photon Entanglement, Fiber Optics, and Qubits in Step Towards Quantum Network

When memory qubits and photons get entangled Encrypting data in a way that ensures secure communication is an ever-growing challenge because crucial components of today’s encryption systems cannot withstand future quantum computers. Researchers around the world are therefore working on technologies for novel encryption methods that are also based on quantum effects. The phenomenon of […]

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 […]
