Tiny optical cavities could make quantum networks possible

Saturday, April 4, 2020 - 11:31 in Physics & Chemistry

Engineers at Caltech have shown that atoms in optical cavities — tiny boxes for light — could lead to the creation of a quantum internet. Their National Science Foundation-funded work was published in the journal Nature Physics. Quantum networks would connect quantum computers through a system that operates at a quantum, rather than classical, level. In theory, quantum computers […]
