Entanglement Observed in Multiple Particles for the First Time

For the first time in history a team of researchers successfully created a system of three entangled diamond nuclei, which they believe to lead to solid state systems that make use of both ions and photons in an entangled state of multiple particles. Entanglement is basically a quantum effect through which the proper...

New Entanglement Technique Creates Photon Pairs on Demand

Photon entanglement is believed to be the future of quantum computing, however creating entangled photon pairs is extremely difficult because entangled photons generation is subjected to random quantum processes. This basically means that with a device you can create a single entangled pair while in a later identical...

New Type of Atom Trap Developed at NIST

Erbium is generally used in optical communication components, due to the magneto-optical properties it has and may one day be used to build optical computing systems and quantum computing. A new study conducted at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, in collaboration with the University of Maryland, su...

Physicists Achieve Breakthrough by Creating... Nothing?

Some of you might think that creating a void is something easily achievable with today's technology, but the truth is far from reality. Not even the vacuum of space is completely empty. For example, vacuum is routinely used by physicists while undertaking studies related to quantum physics. But these vacuums are...

Quantum Computing Takes Giant Leap

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle states that while trying to determine the exact position of a particle in a small region of space, the momentum of the respective particle becomes uncertain and vice versa, by determining the momentum of the particle its location becomes uncertain. This property of the nanoscal...
