We’re now one step closer to a “quantum internet” \u2014 an interconnected web of quantum computers \u2014 after scientists built a network of “quantum memories” at room temperature for the first time.<\/p>\n
In their experiments, the scientists stored and retrieved two photonic qubits \u2014 qubits made from photons (or light particles) \u2014 at the quantum level, according to their paper published on Jan. 15 in the Nature journal,\u00a0Quantum Information<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n The breakthrough is significant because quantum memory is a foundational technology that will be a precursor to a quantum internet \u2013 the next generation of the World Wide Web.<\/p>\n Read it all<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201c'Quantum memory breakthrough' may lead to a quantum internet\u201d<\/p>\n A group of us will be testing this soon.<\/p>\n The big shifts I. Quantum computing will come out of the garages of open source pioneers.<\/p>\n Article:https:\/\/t.co\/VU3rO0zArp<\/a><\/p>\n — Brian Roemmele (@BrianRoemmele) February 26, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n \n
