Optical quantum computers are gaining attention as a next-generation computing technology with high speed and scalability. However, accurately characterizing complex optical processes, where multiple ...

Optical quantum computing is regularly referred to as ‘photonic quantum computing’. This technology harnesses photons as qubits, which are the basic units of quantum information.

Researchers at Harvard have created a groundbreaking metasurface that can replace bulky and complex optical components used in quantum computing with a single, ultra-thin, nanostructured layer. This ...

Published in Nature, the study details the first large-scale demonstration of a photonic Ising machine operating without the ...

Quantum computing has spent years in the realm of lab demos and marketing decks, promising breakthroughs that never quite arrived at commercial scale. With NTT now tying its long-term network vision ...

For all the hype surrounding quantum computers, the technology can sometimes appear to be a solution in search of a problem. Scientifically impressive, but not yet obviously useful in the real world.
