Chances are that you’ve caught the buzzword ‘quantum’ a few times if you stay up to date on the electronics industry. But why exactly has quantum computing been making waves and what does it mean for ...

Physicists are now using a tightly controlled laser and a cloud of ultracold atoms to imitate the behavior of electrons in solids, effectively building a quantum version of electronics out of light ...

A century after Werner Heisenberg first formulated the mathematical foundations of quantum mechanics, we stand witness to both unprecedented quantum breakthroughs and an equally unprecedented ...

Major tech companies drive quantum research with breakthrough chips promising real-world applications in networking and ...

Quantum gravity strives to reconcile the seemingly disparate realms of general relativity and quantum mechanics. Central to this endeavour is the realisation that classical concepts of spacetime may ...

A team of researchers at Australia’s national science agency, CSIRO, the University of Queensland, and the Okinawa Institute ...

The authors do not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organization that would benefit from this article, and have disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond their ...

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle puts a limit on how precisely we can measure certain properties of quantum objects. But researchers may have found a way to bypass this limitation using a quantum ...

A collaboration between the Max Planck Institutes in Halle and Dresden (PI for Microstructure Physics and MPI for Chemical Physics of Solids) has developed a chiral fermionic valve that uses quantum ...
