Sep. 10, 2020 Scientists describe the quirky behavior of one such magnetic topological insulator. The new article includes experimental evidence that intrinsic magnetism in the bulk of manganese bismuth telluride ...
Sep. 9, 2020 Quantum information is fragile, which is why quantum computers must be able to correct errors. But what if whole qubits are lost? Researchers are now presenting a method that allows quantum computers ...
Sep. 8, 2020 Researchers used quantum optics to advance state-of-the-art microscopy and illuminate a path to detecting material properties with greater sensitivity than is possible with traditional ...
Sep. 8, 2020 In physics, it is essential to be able to show a theoretical assumption in actual, physical experiments. For more than a hundred years, physicists have been aware of the link between the concepts of ...
Sep. 4, 2020 Quantum bits, or qubits, can hold quantum information much longer now thanks to efforts by an international research team. The researchers have increased the retention time, or coherence time, to 10 ...
Sep. 4, 2020 Researchers have demonstrated the use of elastic vibrations to manipulate the spin states of optically active color centers in SiC at room temperature. They show a non-trivial dependence of the ...
Sep. 4, 2020 Nature's speed limits aren't posted on road signs, but physicists have discovered a new way to deduce them that is better -- infinitely better, in some cases -- than prior ...
Sep. 2, 2020 The world is one step closer to having a totally secure internet and an answer to the growing threat of cyber-attacks, thanks to a team of international scientists who have created a unique prototype ...
Sep. 2, 2020 Molecules in quantum superposition could help in the development of quantum ...

Aug. 26, 2020 Infinitesimally low levels of radiation, such as from incoming cosmic rays, may soon stymie progress in quantum ...
Aug. 24, 2020 Quantum physicists have developed an algorithm which helps early quantum computers to perform calculations most ...
Aug. 14, 2020 Many quantum materials have been nearly impossible to simulate mathematically because the computing time required is too long. Now engineers have demonstrated a way to considerably reduce the ...
Aug. 14, 2020 Computer scientists have shown that existing compilers, which tell quantum computers how to use their circuits to execute quantum programs, inhibit the computers' ability to achieve optimal ...
Aug. 13, 2020 A team of scientists has announced the discovery of a simple modification that allows quantum systems to stay operational -- or 'coherent' -- 10,000 times longer than ...
Aug. 12, 2020 Physicists have developed an error-correcting cat -- a new device that combines the Schrödinger's cat concept of superposition (a physical system existing in two states at once) with the ...
Aug. 12, 2020 Graphene buckles when cooled while attached to a flat surface, resulting in pucker patterns that could benefit the search for novel quantum materials and superconductors, according to new ...
