A team from the National Institute of Standards and Technology has successfully stored two frames of a simple "movie" in a cloud of rubidium gas for the first time. Atomic storage is one vital aspect Continue reading…
The experimental field of quantum computing has become fertile ground for abstract but fascinating technology, and a recent paper from Nature is no exception. As part of research on reducing Continue reading…
A new method of making the fundamental building blocks of quantum computers has brought them closer to actual use. IBM announced today that it has created quantum bits (qubits) that can retain their Continue reading…
A team based at the University of New South Wales has created a "perfect" single atom transistor, leading the way for smaller and more powerful electronics. The active component in the device is a Continue reading…
IBM has created 9nm transistors from carbon nanotubes, the same versatile material that the world's lightest material is constructed from and can also camouflage objects. In contrast, silicon has a Continue reading…
Quantum cryptography has been championed as the next step in security, with companies and governments investing in the technology that's been widely believed to be totally secure. This belief was Continue reading…
The door to practically building tomorrow's quantum computers has opened a little wider, with researchers crafting a wire just four atoms wide and one atom high that is able to conduct current just Continue reading…
Quantum computing has made significant advances in recent years, but issues of cost and complexity have kept it mainly in the realm of research. A newly proposed system from a group of Air Force and Continue reading…
