Secure quantum networks that use existing fiber to transmit entangled photons are a step closer to reality as three different teams in US, China and the Netherlands have figured out ways to build ...

There are reports of IT sabotage, cyber espionage, and other acts of hybrid warfare almost every day. Communication networks based on quantum physics could help eliminate threats of this kind.

Scientists have taken a major step toward ultra-secure quantum communication by demonstrating a remarkably stable quantum encryption system that worked across more than 120 kilometers of optical fiber ...

Researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute have broken a longstanding barrier by managing to send single photons—that can't be ...

Scientists tested a live quantum internet between three locations across New York, inching closer to an unhackable internet.

Researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) demonstrated a quantum repeater module that addresses a key scalability bottleneck in fiber-based quantum networks. Transmission ...

Quantum technologies are currently maturing at a breath-taking pace. These technologies exploit principles of quantum mechanics in suitably engineered systems, with bright prospects such as boosting ...

A reliable quantum internet is now one step closer to reality. A research team at Stony Brook University is successfully tackling the major challenges of building a quantum internet testbed by ...

Quantum technologies are starting to enter the enterprise network stack, not through futuristic hype, but through practical optimization, security, and connectivity trials already underway. Telecom ...

At first glance, quantum mechanics might seem strange or even impossible. That’s because our everyday experiences of the laws of physics are very different from how matter and energy behave at the ...
