Hundreds of quantum computing firms around the world are racing to commercialise these once-exotic devices, but the jury is still out on who is going to pull ahead and produce a machine that actually ...

By blending digital control with analog simulations, scientists have created a powerful new quantum simulator that pushes ...

Excitons, encountered in technologies like solar cells and TVs, are quasiparticles formed by an electron and a positively charged "hole," moving together in a semiconductor. Created when an electron ...

In the realm of quantum information distribution, sending a signal from point A to point B is like a baseball pitcher ...

Protons are far from simple particles — they are swirling cauldrons of quarks, gluons, and quantum entanglement. Scientists ...

The second law of thermodynamics, a cornerstone of modern physics, states that entropy—a measure of disorder—never spontaneously decreases. It governs everything from the efficiency of engines to the ...

Quantum dots are widely used for their ability to emit single photons at specific wavelengths. These photons are created by electronic transitions in quantum dots and are ideal for encoding and ...

Researchers from the Nagoya University and Slovak Academy of Sciences have made a ground-breaking discovery that sheds new light on how quantum theory and thermodynamics interact.
