Teleportation in the world of making and performing music

Teleportation is most commonly the stuff of science fiction and, for many, would conjure up the immortal phrase “Beam me up Scotty”. However, a new study has described how its status in science fact could actually be employed as another, and perhaps unlikely, form of entertainment – live music. Dr Alexis Kirke, Senior Research Fellow Read more about Teleportation in the world of making and performing music[…]

New silicon chip for helping build quantum computers and securing our information

Researchers at the University of Bristol’s Quantum Engineering Technology Labs have demonstrated a new type of silicon chip that can help building and testing quantum computers and could find their way into your mobile phone to secure information. Scientific effort worldwide is focused on attempting to use silicon photonics to realise quantum technologies, such as super-secure communications, Read more about New silicon chip for helping build quantum computers and securing our information[…]

One step closer to the quantum internet

Physicists from the University of Basel have developed a memory that can store photons. These quantum particles travel at the speed of light and are thus suitable for high-speed data transfer. The researchers were able to store them in an atomic vapor and read them out again later without altering their quantum mechanical properties too Read more about One step closer to the quantum internet[…]
