For quantum computers to outperform their classical counterparts, they need more quantum bits, or qubits. State-of-the-art ...

Physicists at the University of Oxford have successfully linked two atomic clocks through quantum entanglement for the first time. The feat can help make these clocks so precise that they begin to ...

In 1927, Oppenheimer published a paper called “On the Quantum Theory of Molecules” with his research adviser Max Born. This paper outlined what is commonly referred to as the Born-Oppenheimer ...

IonQ said Wednesday the planned acquisition is intended to expand its quantum technology portfolio. By integrating Vector Atomic’s advanced PNT systems, including rackmount optical atomic clocks, ...

Two physicists at the University of Stuttgart have proven that the Carnot principle, a central law of thermodynamics, does not apply to objects on the atomic scale whose physical properties are linked ...

Almost exactly 200 years ago, French physicist Sadi Carnot determined the maximum efficiency of heat engines. The Carnot ...

A comparative illustration of the performance between a conventional STM image (left) and an image obtained with the developed quantum sensor (right). When observing atoms with a conventional STM, ...

Quantum computers are designed to solve complex problems outside the scope of classic computing. Classic computers use ...

Excerpt: Researchers at Raman Research Institute demonstrate a technique revealing local atom density while preserving the ...

Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to ...
