A micro-scale quantum heat engine that converts thermal energy to usable work under near-zero temperatures has paved the way ...

In a breakthrough for antimatter research, the BASE collaboration at CERN has kept an antiproton—the antimatter counterpart of a proton—oscillating smoothly between two different quantum states for ...

Quantum computers, devices that process information by leveraging the laws of quantum mechanics, have been found to ...

A quantum problem once described as impossible for classical computers has now been solved using relatively modest hardware.

Quantum computers hold great promise for exciting applications in the future, but for now they keep presenting physicists and engineers with a series of challenges and conundrums. One of them relates ...

On Monday, Nature released a paper from Google’s quantum computing team that provides a key demonstration of the potential of quantum error correction. Thanks to an ...

Using a powerful machine made up of 56 trapped-ion quantum bits, or qubits, researchers have achieved something once thought impossible. They have proven, for the first time, that a quantum computer ...

The company has drawn governments, a major chipmaker, and the Pentagon into an effort to control fragile photons and build a ...

The gemstone spinel, known for its vibrant colors resembling gems like rubies and sapphires, has now been shown to be capable of storing quantum information, making it a viable material in the field ...
