Any time you use a device to communicate information—an email, a text message, any data transfer—the information in that ...

Scientists have successfully transmitted quantum data and conventional data through a single optical fiber for the first time. The research demonstrates that quantum data in the form of entangled ...

A new discovery shows that messy, stray light can be used to clean up quantum systems instead of disrupting them. University ...

Researchers have shown that quantum signals can be sent from Earth up to satellites, not just down from space as previously ...

Researchers demonstrate that by shaping the spatial and temporal structure of photons, they can engineer customized quantum states suited for next-generation communication, sensing, and imaging ...

For years, physicists treated an Earth-to-space quantum uplink as a beautiful idea that nature simply would not allow. Now a ...

Researchers at the University of Iowa have identified a new way to "purify" photons, a development that could improve both the performance and ...

The ability to share quantum information is crucial for developing quantum networks for distributed computing and secure communication. Quantum computing will be useful for solving some important ...

Does the universe notice that we're paying attention to a quantum experiment? The answer goes against everything we thought we knew.

A new theory of "dark photons" attempted to explain a centuries-old experiment in a new way this year, in an effort to change ...

In a laboratory at Oxford University, scientists have achieved something that once seemed science fiction: they made two separate quantum computers work together as one. Instead of being connected by ...
