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 ...

Optical quantum computers are gaining attention as a next-generation computing technology with high speed and scalability. However, accurately characterizing complex optical processes, where multiple ...

There's a thermal noise problem in quantum computing, and it comes from an unlikely source: the wiring used to interface with the qubits. You see, electrical signals traveling across wire generate ...

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 ...

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 ...
