Routing signals and isolating them against noise and back-reflections are essential in many practical situations in classical communication as well as in quantum...
The future of electronics will be based on novel kinds of materials. Sometimes, however, the naturally occurring topology of atoms makes it difficult...
A new theoretical study provides a framework for understanding nonlocality, a feature that quantum networks must possess to perform operations inaccessible to standard...
Researchers have created a quantum superposition state in a semiconductor nanostructure that might serve as a basis for quantum computing. The trick: two...
Many substances change their properties when they are cooled below a certain critical temperature. Such a phase transition occurs, for example, when water...
In a potential boon for quantum computing, physicists have shown that topologically protected quantum states can be entangled with other, highly manipulable quantum...
