An international study has revealed a surprising connection between quantum physics and the theoretical models underlying ...

Light does not “think” in any human sense. Still, under the right conditions, it can behave in a way that looks uncannily like a memory system.

A pair of photons enters an optical maze, and sometimes they leave as something new. Not new in the everyday sense, since both were still photons when they came out.

In a laboratory at Oxford University, scientists have achieved something that once seemed science fiction: they made two separate quantum computers work together as one. Instead of being connected by ...

Quantum technologies, devices and systems that operate leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could tackle some tasks more ...

Scientists built a quantum gate linking four-state photons, showing complex quantum tasks can be done with fewer steps using qudits.

Every message we send online, whether a bank transfer or a meme, relies on light. Tiny pulses travel through fiber-optic cables, bouncing between nodes that amplify the signal every few dozen ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Gil Press writes about technology, entrepreneurs and innovation. As Melamed tells it, after Sony Corporation acquired the ...

This breathtaking clue about the architecture of consciousness supports a Nobel-Prize winner’s theory about how quantum physics works in your brain.

In the strange world of quantum physics, even the tiniest tweak can unlock outsized rewards.

Physicists have manipulated individual particles of light, photons, under ultra-stable laboratory conditions. They split a solitary photon into two distinct lower-energy entities, observing with ...
