Physicists used quantum bits to achieve "perfect randomness" in a world-first experiment. The results of their research could strengthen cryptography and other security systems.

Swapping materials in its Majorana 2 chip boosted the effectiveness of quantum bits that rely on the math of topology to reduce errors, Microsoft says.

The introduction of quantum theory through the tree metaphor illustrates the observer effect emphasized in the double slit experiment. Wave-particle duality, de Broglie wavelength, and the role of observation in altering outcomes are key concepts. The deterministic pilot wave theory offers an alternative view, which includes the Creator of the universe.

Scientists have achieved a first in studying lanthanum superhydrides, a class of materials that could help unlock superconductivity at much higher temperatures. The dream of transmitting electricity without energy loss has driven decades of superconductivity research. Some of the most promising candidates yet are superhydrides, hydrogen-rich materials that, under immense pressures, have exhibited superconducting behavior [...]

In her YouTube video Bell’s Theorem Experiments on Entangled Photons, Dr. Fugate shows how polarization-entangled photons violate Bell’s inequality. In this Insight, I will use quantum information theory to explain why such entangled photon-polarization qubits violate the version of Bell’s inequality due to John Clauser, Michael Horne, Abner Shimony, and Richard Holt known as the...

Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated: Before we end, let’s now briefly talk about the birth of quantum information science, a pivotal shift that began in the 1990s. This is the era when researchers...
