SPIE and the University of Glasgow have established a $1 million programme to support graduate students in the field of quantum photonics
Progress is being made on entanglement methods that can work in mainstream telecom wavelengths, in conventional networks, finds Andy Extance
One of the most promising candidates for the perfect quantum qubit are defect centres in solid-state materials, also known as colour centres. Widely tunable cw lasers make it quicker and easier to characterize the internal energy structure of different qubit contenders. Read how!
It may soon be possible to transport quantum information over long distances with glass fibres, thanks to a new project launched by Dutch research centre QuTech and the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology
Researchers from the Photonics Research Group have successfully integrated single photon emitters in 2D layered materials with a silicon nitride photonic chip
