University of Utah physicists managed to store information for 112 seconds in what may become the world’s tiniest computer memory – magnetic “spins” in the centers or nuclei of atoms. Afterwards, they were able to retrieve and read the data electronically – a big step toward using the new kind of memory for both faster… »

A team of physicists and engineers at Bristol University has demonstrated exquisite control of single photons on a silicon chip to make a major advance towards quantum technologies, including super-powerful quantum computers and ultra-precise measurements. Jeremy O’Brien, Director of the Centre for Quantum Photonics at the Bristol University, who led the research, has demonstrated precise… »
