Quantum teleportation has moved from science fiction into laboratory reality, but not in the way popular culture imagines.

For decades, scientists have chased a bold idea: a quantum internet that sends information ...

Researchers at Heriot-Watt University have introduced a prototype quantum network that merges two smaller networks into a single, reconfigurable eight-user system capable of routing — and even ...

While usual gapless points that are not geometrically defective i.e. Dirac points (Left column) possess only eigenvalues within [0, 1] (Bottom Left), defective exceptional points (Right column) also ...

It's one thing to dream up a quantum internet that could send hacker-proof information around the world via photons superimposed in different quantum states. It's quite another to physically show it's ...

For decades, physicists have dreamed of a quantum internet: a planetary web of ultrasecure communications and super-powered computation built not from electrical signals, but from the ghostly ...

Quantum computers are able to solve complex calculations that would take traditional computers thousands of years in just a few minutes. What if that analytical power is turned inwards towards the ...

Quantum communication uses quantum states to enable secure data transmission, an increasingly critical capability for sectors ...

Heriot-Watt scientists say they’ve taken a major step towards quantum internet with their prototype quantum network capable ...
