Physicists from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) have examined a fundamental property of quantum mechanics in ...

In the digital world, there is no such thing as a perfect roll of ...

Encryption systems rely on “random” numbers, but conventional computers can’t generate them perfectly. New research shows that quantum physics can.

Chip-based device paves the way for scalable and secure random number generation, an essential building block for future digital infrastructure Chip-based device paves the way for scalable and secure ...

Computing hasn’t changed fundamentally since the advent of the abacus 4,500 years ago. But that could change imminently as the world ushers in the quantum computer, a radically new type of computing ...

There are currently about 80 companies across the world manufacturing quantum computing hardware. Because I report on quantum computing, I have had a chance to watch it grow as an industry from up ...

One of the most significant challenges in quantum computing is the variability in implementing quantum algorithms across different chips. In this work, we present a Hadamard photonic gate based on the ...

A team that included researchers at a US bank says it has created a protocol that can generate certified truly random numbers, opening the possibility that current generation quantum computers can be ...

The protocol proposed in ref. 3 provides a complexity-theoretic guarantee of Ω(n) bits of entropy for a server returning many samples from the same circuit. This protocol is best suited for quantum ...
