Europeans Set New Teleportation Record Chinese experts were able a few weeks back to set a new world record for the distance over which teleportation is possible. The Asian group announced that it managed to teleport data over a little less than 100 kilometers (60 miles), but now European researchers set a new record. A group of physicists was able to t... 21 May 2012 09:43 GMT A Good Mix: Nanoantennas and Quantum Communications Being able to control the pathways of light inside a very small microchip is one of the most important goals of researchers looking into quantum communications. Up until now, reaching this objective has proven to be very difficult to reach, and so experts have now turned their attention on a less standard approach. T... 15 March 2010 02:17 GMT The 'Quantum Internet' Is Possible Quantum computers are one of the most promising and hard-to-reach goals in the world today. These machines promise unprecedented calculation power, that would make today's supercomputers look like mere pocket calculators. But achieving stable quantum operations is tremendously difficult, and groups around the wo... 24 November 2009 10:32 GMT
