Efficient generation and reliable distribution of quantum entangled states is crucial for emerging quantum applications, ...

A University of Ottawa team has developed a new way to protect free-space quantum key distribution (QKD) from atmospheric turbulence, one of the main causes of distortion and errors when sending ...

To push beyond this boundary, the team developed a quantum repeater system capable of creating memory–memory entanglement between two separate nodes. By linking these nodes through entanglement ...

While the basic form of QKD enables information to be transmitted securely, it does have some weak points. One of them is that a malicious third party could steal the key by hacking the devices the ...

Quantum key distribution promises ultra-secure communication by using the strange rules of quantum physics to detect eavesdroppers instantly. But even the most secure quantum link can falter if the ...

Company sends quantum-encrypted data through 1,032-kilometer fiber-optic network at more than 10,000 times previous speed record. As a result, Terra Quantum sets world records in both data ...

Beijing University. Chinese scientists have built the world's first large-scale quantum key distribution (QKD) network based on integrated ...

The punishingly cold temperatures and fragile quantum states at the heart of a quantum computer put extreme constraints on the electronics that support them. So far, quantum computing companies have ...

Quantum computing is a rapidly growing industry, with the prospect of achieving true "quantum advantage" driving significant activity and interest. LASER COMPONENTS is ideally positioned as a key ...
