The poet Blake wrote that you can see a world in a grain of sand. But even better, you can see a universe in an atom!

The proof, known to be so hard that a mathematician once offered 10 martinis to whoever could figure it out, uses number ...

The uncertainty inherent to quantum mechanics has long left physicists wondering whether the observations we make on the ...

Scientists are closer to creating a quantum spin liquid, a state where electron spins stay dynamic even at near absolute zero, key for future quantum computing. (Nanowerk News) The future of computing ...

Researchers have developed a chip-based quantum random number generator that provides high-speed, high-quality operation on a miniaturized platform. This advance could help move quantum random number ...

The proof, known to be so hard that a mathematician once offered 10 martinis to whoever could figure it out, connects quantum mechanics to infinitely intricate mathematical structures. Hofstadter was ...

David Reilly and his University of Sidney team developed a silicon chip that can control spin qubits at milli-kelvin temperatures. That’s just slightly above absolute zero (-273.15 degrees Celsius), ...

The BMFTR-funded SPINNING project has successfully demonstrated that hybrid-integrable, scalable, and near-room-temperature solid-state quantum components represent a robust and energy-efficient ...
