A proposed experiment to test whether gravity behaves as a quantum entity when measured
A multi-institutional team of physicists is proposing an experiment to test whether gravity behaves as a quantum entity when measured. They published a description of their experiment in the journal Physical Review Letters and state that once a means for conducting the experiment has been achieved, they hope the results will lead to the development
Quantum computing researchers develop an 8-photon qubit chip
A group of South Korean researchers has successfully developed an integrated quantum circuit chip using photons (light particles). It is a system capable of controlling eight photons using a photonic integrated-circuit chip. With this system, they can explore various quantum phenomena, such as multipartite entanglement resulting from the interaction of the photons.Quantum Physics NewsRead More
Scientists find a new way of entangling light and sound
For a wide variety of emerging quantum technologies, such as secure quantum communications and quantum computing, quantum entanglement is a prerequisite. Scientists at the Max-Planck-Institute for the Science of Light (MPL) have now demonstrated a particularly efficient way in which photons can be entangled with acoustic phonons.Quantum Physics NewsRead More
