Into the quantum world with a tennis racket

Posted on by Haptic

Quantum technology is seen as an important future-oriented technology: smaller, faster and with higher performance than conventional electronics. However, exploiting quantum effects is difficult because nature’s smallest building blocks have properties quite distinct from those we know from our everyday world. An international team of researchers has now succeeded in extracting a fault tolerant manipulation Read more about Into the quantum world with a tennis racket[…]

A new framework for faster control of a quantum bit

Posted on by Haptic

From laptops to cellphones, today’s technology advances through the ever-increasing speed of directing electric charges in circuits. Similarly, speeding up control over quantum states in atomic and nanoscale systems could lead to leaps for the emerging field of quantum technology. An international collaboration between physicists at the University of Chicago, Argonne National Laboratory, McGill University, Read more about A new framework for faster control of a quantum bit[…]

European Cloud Initiative to give Europe a global lead in the data-driven economy

Posted on by Haptic

The Commission today presented its blueprint for cloud-based services and world-class data infrastructure to ensure science, business and public services reap benefits of big data revolution. Europe is the largest producer of scientific data in the world, but insufficient and fragmented infrastructure means this ‘big data’ is not being exploited to its full potential. By Read more about European Cloud Initiative to give Europe a global lead in the data-driven economy[…]
