Researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich have developed the first-ever fully functional mechanical qubit. This incredible quantum innovation is a two-in-one system ...

Over the past decade, scientists have made tremendous progress in generating quantum phenomena in mechanical systems. What seemed impossible only fifteen years ago has now become a reality, as ...

Researchers at EPFL have combined the power of six mechanical oscillators into one collective state. This is a big breakthrough as it will enable the development of ultra-precise sensors and other ...

In the fast-evolving world of quantum computing, one of the biggest hurdles isn’t how fast calculations can be done—it’s how long you can hold onto the delicate quantum information in the first place.

Quantum information (QI) processing may be the next game changer in the evolution of technology, by providing unprecedented computational capabilities, security and detection sensitivities. Qubits, ...

Researchers at UCSB put a visible object into a quantum ground state. They cooled a 30 micron long paddle down to a temperature of 0.1K. They were able to excite specific quantum modes and put it into ...
