How many beam splitters, lenses, and mirrors does it take to entangle a photon? The answer was “way too many” for years and that’s been the problem. In the quantum realm of photonics, pursuit of ...

Fig.1 Schematic of the experimental setup for continuous-variable entanglement-assisted quantum comumication.Alice encodes classical signals on the ancilla beam by an amplitude modulator (AM) and a ...

Scientists have achieved a breakthrough by "distilling" light to eliminate the noise that prevents photonic quantum computers ...

Researchers created an ultra-thin optical array that controls photons like bulky quantum devices, offering a scalable path to room-temperature quantum photonics. (Nanowerk News) In the race toward ...

Researchers developed a chip-based single-phonon directional coupler that carries out controllable splitting and achieves quantum-level performance. The device could enable microscopic on-chip routers ...
