Quantum dance: Discovery led by Princeton researchers could revolutionize computing
An international team of scientists, led by a Princeton University group, has observed an exciting and strange behavior in electrons' spin within a new material that could be harnessed to transform computing and electronics. view more (2009-02-19)
JQI researchers create entangled photons from quantum dots
To exploit the quantum world to the fullest, a key commodity is entanglement-the spooky, distance-defying link that can form between objects such as atoms even when they are completely shielded from one another. view more (2009-11-18)
Physics World Digest: October 2002 edition
Let the quantum games begin Imagine Captain Picard and Q from Star Trek playing a "coin-flipping" game on the bridge of the Starship Enterprise. But rather than playing with an ordinary coin, which can only be either heads or tails, they are using a "quantum coin" that can be both heads and tails at the same time. To Picard`s dismay and to the... view more... (2002-10-01)
Princeton scientists discover exotic quantum state of matter
A team of scientists from Princeton University has found that one of the most intriguing phenomena in condensed-matter physics -- known as the quantum Hall effect -- can occur in nature in a way that no one has ever before seen. view more (2008-04-25)
Physicists see similarities in stream of sand grains, exotic plasma at birth of universe
Streams of granular particles bouncing off a target in a simple tabletop experiment produce liquid-like behavior also witnessed in a massive research apparatus that simulates the birth of the universe. view more (2007-11-07)
'Dead time' limits quantum cryptography speeds
Quantum cryptography is potentially the most secure method of sending encrypted information, but does it have a speed limit" According to a new paper by researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Joint Quantum Institute (JQI), technological and security issues will stall maximum transmission rates at... view more...
