John Levy, CEO of the New-York-based Seeqc start-up, is the fifth nominee of the ‘Quantum Personality of the Year 2020’. He co-founded SeeQC in 2018. From 2010-18 he served as the Chairman of BioLite, a
A team of Chinese researchers has used drones to create a prototype of a small airborne quantum network and to send entangled particles from one drone to another and from a drone to the ground.
Scientists at the Institute of Physics of the University of Tartu, Estonia have found a way to develop optical quantum computers of a new type, based on the discovery of Rare Earth Ions (REIs) that
Researchers at the University of Bonn have used ultracold atoms to gain new insights into previously unknown quantum phenomena. They found out that the magnetic orders between two coupled thin films of atoms compete with
The India’s Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) has announced a collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to develop a Quantum Computing Applications Lab in the country. The lab is meant to provide access
Researchers at Stanford University have developed a quantum version of Archimedes’ screw that, instead of water, hauls fragile collections of gas atoms to higher and higher energy states without collapsing. Most nonequilibrium, many-particle systems eventually
A research team from the University of Science and Technology of China has made security analysis and improvement of Source Independent Quantum Random Number Generators (SI-QRNGs) with imperfect devices. By studying the actual characteristics of
Dr Daniel Twitchen, Chief Technologist of UK-based E6 (ElementSix), a De Beers company, is the fourth nominee of the ‘Quantum Personality of the Year 2020’. Daniel has 25 years’ experience developing CVD diamond synthesis for
A team of researchers at University Grenoble Alpes and Centre of Excellence Quantum Technology has developed a single-quantum-dot heat valve. They have demonstrated gate control of electronic heat flow in a thermally biased single-quantum-dot junction.
Physicists at Princeton University have observed an unexpected quantum behavior in an insulator made from a material called tungsten ditelluride. This phenomenon, known as quantum oscillation, is typically observed in metals rather than insulators, and
