A ‘quantum telephone’ connecting atomic nuclei could make practical quantum computers easier to build and use.
A new “topological” approach to quantum computing may address longstanding challenges with the technology.
An ‘80s-style accord may be the best way to find consensus in the uncertain and divided arena of quantum technology.
Universities and colleges nationwide are beginning to investigate quantum education to develop a workforce ready for quantum technology.
Tech giants, major powers and top research universities are all in a race to build viable quantum systems. Why now?
A major focus of the federal government’s defence policy update is the need to develop quantum-based defence technology that will help Canada address two big threats: the Arctic and cyber security.
Quantum computers that work at slightly higher temperatures could be cheaper and more accessible.
Quantum computers are proving extremely difficult to build, and there is no guarantee they will live up to their designers’ hopes.
A potential new supermaterial isn’t so super after all, but the dream of a room-temperature superconductor is still very much alive.
Studying the brief and tiny quantum effects that drive living systems could one day lead to new approaches to treatments and technologies.
Countries around the world are racing to develop quantum technologies for computing, sensing and communication. Australia is trying not to get left behind.
Canada is well positioned to gain far-reaching economic and social benefits from the rapidly developing quantum industry, but it must act now to secure its success.
Twisted laser light may help launch a revolution in technology.
Scott Morrison is set to unveil his plan to invest $100 million in quantum technology to commercialise Australia’s quantum research and help businesses find markets and investors
So far researchers have only been able to control a handful of qubits — the basic units of information in a quantum computer. A new approach could help them control millions at a time.
The focus of quantum science has shifted from theoretical physics to the advent of new technologies such as quantum computers. The benefits could be immense, but there are also potential pitfalls.
