Artist’s impression of the quantum spin Hall effect in a graphene-based spintronic device, integrated in a chip. The blue and red spheres are spin-up and spin-down electrons traveling along the edge ...

When a singer belts out a tune while a guitar player strums along, sound waves travel through the air, driving collective oscillations of the molecules within. Meanwhile, at the quantum level, ...

Quantum technologies, devices that can process, store, or detect information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could outperform classical devices in some tasks or scenarios. Despite their ...

A team of scientists at Simon Fraser University's Quantum Technology Lab and leading Canada-based quantum company Photonic Inc. have created a new type of silicon-based quantum device controlled both ...

A new quantum device can generate precisely controlled bursts of sound-like particles, or phonons, by forcing electrons through an ultra-thin crystal at extremely low temperatures. The surprising ...

The dawn of quantum technology promises to revolutionize fields from secure communication to ultra-powerful computing. However, a significant hurdle has persisted: the bulky and complex nature of ...

A device smaller than a grain of dust is emerging as a surprisingly powerful candidate to reshape how quantum computers are built and scaled. Instead of relying on room-filling optics and fragile lab ...

Scientists have turned simple glass into a powerful quantum communication device that could safeguard data against future quantum attacks. The chip combines stability, speed, and versatility—handling ...
