In a first for Germany, researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have shown how tin vacancies in diamonds can be precisely controlled using microwaves. These vacancies have special ...

Founding partners INSPIR8ION, Eurofiber, Q*Bird, Cisco and CGI launch QCFR on 18 June at RDM Next, creating a practical environment to test, validate and operationalise quantum-secure communication ...

As part of the QuNET project, researchers have demonstrated how quantum key distribution works reliably via hybrid and mobile channels. The results are milestones for sovereign, quantum-secured ...

A major breakthrough in quantum technology was achieved in October 2024: the first-ever quantum satellite communication link between China and South Africa. The connection spanned a remarkable ...

Quantum communications exploit the properties of quantum-mechanical states to enable applications that are provably impossible using classical means alone. These applications include ...

Scientists build a new light source for quantum communications by combining existing technologies together to create a stronger and more robust quantum signal. When you purchase through links on our ...

a. Schematic of a CBR sample on six-legged piezoelectric substrate mounted on a chip carrier. Dimensions are not to scale. b. Optical microscopy image of a finished sample. A tilted scanning electron ...

Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a secure communication method for sharing symmetric cryptographic keys based on the principles of quantum physics. Its integration into the fiber-optic network ...

Alice and Bob use entangled particles to securely exchange a message or cryptographic key (Credit: A. Dutra and T. Ohst). Quantum technologies often imagine distant users – Alice and Bob – sharing ...

For more than two decades, the quantum communications market has largely centered on quantum key distribution (QKD): the exchange of encryption keys protected by the laws of quantum physics. But a ...

As our global communication networks expand at an unprecedented pace, we are facing significant challenges that we must address to ensure a secure and sustainable future for our businesses. According ...

Scientists have created an "exceptionally bright" light source that can generate quantum-entangled photons (particles of light) which could be used to securely transmit data in a future high-speed ...
