Research teams from USTC have realized a high-performance single-photon source with an efficiency beyond the scalable linear optical quantum computing loss tolerance threshold for the first time. Led ...

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 ...

Researchers at Harvard have created a groundbreaking metasurface that can replace bulky and complex optical components used in quantum computing with a single, ultra-thin, nanostructured layer. This ...

As quantum computing develops, scientists are working to identify tasks for which quantum computers have a clear advantage over classical computers. So far, researchers have only pinpointed a handful ...

The latest trends in software development from the Computer Weekly Application Developer Network. Sometimes classed as a Japanese startup, OptQC works with optical photonic technologies to develop a ...
