(Phys.org) Professor Michelle Simmons' team at UNSW Sydney has demonstrated a compact sensor for accessing information stored in the electrons of individual atoms—a breakthrough that brings us one step closer to scalable quantum computing in...

(QuantumLab.org) Singapore's National Research Foundation (NRF) will invest $25 million over five years in a new Quantum Engineering Programme (QEP). With the new funding, the goal is to translate quantum science and technology into engineering...

(SpectrumIEEE) Researchers at Stevens Institute of Technology have developed an on-chip quantum emitter capable of emitting one photon of light at a time with a previously unattainable spatial resolution and efficiency. This advance could prove key...

(Phys.org) Physicists at the University of Warwick have developed a new test to identify the tell-tale hallmark of quantum coherence, classifying the properties of particles in a quantum state that are interacting with a real-world environment....

(Forbes) It’s the power of quantum mechanics that allows the Sun to shine. If it weren’t for the quantum nature of every particle in the Universe, and the fact that their positions are described by wavefunctions with an inherent quantum uncertainty...

(TheAtlantic) A team working at the University of Sherbrooke in Canada and the National Laboratory for Intense Magnetic Fields (LNCMI) in France, indicate that electrons inside a variety of ceramic crystals called “cuprates” seem to dissipate energy...

(WSJ) Volkswagen AG's research project now has evolved into a quantum computing-based traffic management system that could be offered as a commercial service from Volkswagen, says Martin Hofmann, Volkswagen’s chief information officer although he...

(TechCrunch) Quantum Machines has announced a $5.5 million seed investment led by TLV Partners with participation from Battery Ventures. Quantum Machines is an Israeli startup launched by three Ph.D. physicists, wants to build the operational and...

(Phys.org) RDECOM Research Laboratory scientists at the Army's corporate research laboratory (ARL) have found a novel way to safeguard quantum information during transmission.The project is led by Drs. Daniel Jones, Brian Kirby, and Michael...

(SpectrumIEEE) Pennsylvania State University researchers announced in September they’d built the framework for a 125-qubit computer engine. The foundational element for the proof-of-concept Penn State system is not the computer chip but rather the...

(Nature) Within a decade, quantum computers will be able to break a blockchain’s cryptographic codes. This article highlights how quantum technology makes blockchains vulnerable — and how it could render them more secure.
Vulnerabilities: A...
