Yokohama National University is Getting Your Entangled Photons Further Through Fiber Optics

Yokohama National University is Getting Your Entangled Photons Further Through Fiber Optics Quest for quantum Internet gets a boost with new technique for making entanglement Traditional ways of producing entanglements, necessary for the development of any “quantum internet” linking quantum computers, are not very well suited for fiber optic telecoms networks used by today’s non-quantum […]

Eliminating Microwave Interference; Quantum Repeaters

Research teams at Yokohoma University have moved quantum computing efforts closer to realizing controllable quantum systems. Microwaves have been known to cause interference in quantum gates under certain conditions, creating difficulty in quantum gate manipulation. By eliminating the microwave-induced interference, the group was able to improve control of the quantum gate in diamonds at room temperature without a magnetic field. This step is an enabler of sustained quantum memory which lends to quantum repeaters. A needed piece of hardware to developing a quantum network.
