Data has been sent across wide-area networks as light pulses for decades, but optical (or photonic) computing has been slow to meet the challenges of moving data in the form...

Scientists have generated circularly polarized light and controlled its direction without using clunky magnets or very low temperatures. The findings, by Nagoya University researchers and colleagues in Japan, and published...

Qmode project with QuiX QuiX and PHIX started a collaboration in the project Qmode to overcome the packaging challenges of connecting large-scale quantum photonic processors to the outside world. Within...

When memory qubits and photons get entangled Encrypting data in a way that ensures secure communication is an ever-growing challenge because crucial components of today’s encryption systems cannot withstand future...

Twistoptics—A New Way to Control Optical Nonlinearity Two slabs of boron nitride crystals are dynamically twisted with respect to each other. At certain angles, the incoming laser light (orange beam)...

Just SiC. Silicon Carbide Semiconductor Research May Pan Out for Quantum Information Processing Silicon is in the scope for many quantum computing research teams. But what exactly is SiC?  To...
