U of L scientists contributing to advances in Quantum computing“When you have an object here and a (related) object there, they could be two metres apart, 200 km apart, or two million kilometres apart,” he states. “It sounds mystical, like Star Trek and everything, but it is real science,” states…

Could we be on the verge of a new Quantum Super highway?
Daily briefing: Vaccine inequality leaves doctors to die in AfricaCompared with a no-pandemic scenario, deaths were 39% higher for food and agriculture workers, 28% higher for transportation and logistics workers and only 11% higher for non-essential workers. Countries in Europe, Asia and the Americas have administered 175 million shots since…
Quantum network is step towards ultrasecure internetMikhail Lukin, a physicist at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, calls the Delft experiment “heroic”, but adds that its performance is slow, showing that nitrogen defects also have limitations. In a tour-de-force experiment3 in 2015, the Delft team successfully entangled two diamond-based devices, and…
A different type of cloud computing: Quantum breakthrough uses lasers to find data in a giant cloud of atomic nucleiTypically, quantum information can be encoded in electrons that are trapped in artificially made crystals containing thousands of atoms, called quantum dots. The US recently published a step-by-step strategy to realize…
Radical Right Extremists And The Quantum Arms RaceThis has become a global socio-technical issue, as increasing numbers of extremists utilize social media powered by AI to increase the volume, diversity, and availability of propaganda. In the majority of instances, confidential data, and top-secret intelligence, must be stored securely for many…
Extracting information stored in 100,000 nuclear quantum bitsUsing the light from a laser, the researchers are able to communicate with an electron, which then communicates with the spins, or inherent angular momentum, of the nuclei. D. M. Jackson, et al, Quantum sensing of a coherent single spin excitation in a…
Researchers use light to detect quantum information stored in nuclear quantum bitsThe researchers, from the University of Cambridge, were able to inject a ‘needle’ of highly fragile quantum information in a ‘haystack’ of 100,000 nuclei. Using the light from a laser, the researchers are able to communicate with an electron,…

Universities are Building the Future of Quantum InternetWhenever it arrives, the quantum internet will not replace the classical internet. “The biggest impact on academia that I foresee is creating a transdisciplinary bridge and collaboration among researchers in disciplines that would not have otherwise worked together,” Guha says. Instead, users will…
