An exceptionally fast qubit gate has been developed, representing completely new quantum computer hardware that breaks through the limitations of previous formats
Two research consortia in The Netherlands are set to receive a total of €2 million for research into the ethical, legal and social impacts of quantum technology
Laser firms could really benefit from quantum computing, which should not just be reserved for the world's big challenges, finds Jessica Rowbury
Dr Peter Leibinger, CTO of Trumpf, has called for a joined-up strategy on quantum technologies on the first day of Laser World of Photonics in Munich
Quantum clocks, computers and data networks could all benefit from photonics advances, it was told at Photonics West on Demand last week
A newly-established European project aims to create the first European lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI)-based platform for photonic integrated circuits (PICs)
As microscopes become ever more powerful, a growing band of businesses are racing to make the latest technologies more accessible and more affordable, reports Rebecca Pool
Illustration of a three-dimensional crystal with various types of confining centres. (a) Crystal with four confining centres, each trapping waves (yellow) in all three dimensions simultaneously. (b) Crystal with a linear confining centre where waves can propagate in one dimension, analogous to an optical fibre. (c) Crystal with a planar confining centre where waves can propagate in two dimensions, analogous to a 2D electron gas. (Image: Vos et al.)
Newly discovered fundamental rules have been embedded into software to dramatically optimise the design of photonic integrated circuits
