As the demand for more secure data transmission increases, conventional communication technologies are facing limitations imposed by classical physics, and are therefore approaching their limits in ...

In a first for Germany, researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have shown how tin vacancies in diamonds can be precisely controlled using microwaves. These vacancies have special ...

Alice and Bob use entangled particles to securely exchange a message or cryptographic key (Credit: A. Dutra and T. Ohst). Quantum technologies often imagine distant users – Alice and Bob – sharing ...

A major breakthrough in quantum technology was achieved in October 2024: the first-ever quantum satellite communication link between China and South Africa. The connection spanned a remarkable ...

Scientists build a new light source for quantum communications by combining existing technologies together to create a stronger and more robust quantum signal. When you purchase through links on our ...

Founding partners INSPIR8ION, Eurofiber, Q*Bird, Cisco and CGI launch QCFR on 18 June at RDM Next, creating a practical environment to test, validate and operationalise quantum-secure communication ...

Chinese scientists have established the world’s first integrated quantum communication network, combining over 700 optical fibers on the ground with two ground-to-satellite links to achieve quantum ...

Quantum communications exploit the properties of quantum-mechanical states to enable applications that are provably impossible using classical means alone. These applications include ...

Prof. Andrew Forbes joins Nkepile Mabuse to unpack quantum internet, light patterns, encryption threats, Starlink and SA’s ...

Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a secure communication method for sharing symmetric cryptographic keys based on the principles of quantum physics. Its integration into the fiber-optic network ...
