You're not alone if you've been hearing the buzz about quantum computing and wondering what it means or why it matters. The rapidly evolving field remains deeply technical, expensive to advance ...

The system achieves an impressive apparent quantum efficiency (AQE) of 9.4%, which measures how effectively it converts incident photons into electrons that participate in the reaction under ...

Professor Patrick Regan, NPL professor of Nuclear Metrology at the University of Surrey and co-lead on the study, said: "It's so very cool to be able to 'see' the shapes of these smallest quantum ...

Quantum physics is the study of matter and energy at its most fundamental level. A central tenet of quantum physics is that energy comes in indivisible packets called quanta. Quanta behave very ...

Quantum information is problem solving and data processing using a quantum system as the information carrier, rather than binary ‘1’s and ‘0’s used in conventional computation. Quantum ...
