Any time you use a device to communicate information—an email, a text message, any data transfer—the information in that ...

Scientists in the UK have been able to generate pairs of entangled photons from a nanoscale crystal of semiconductor known as a "quantum dot" far more efficiently than was possible before. The ...

Researchers from the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa, in collaboration with Huzhou University, discovered ...

The 2022 Nobel Prize in physics recognized three scientists who made groundbreaking contributions in understanding one of the most mysterious of all natural phenomena: quantum entanglement. In the ...

Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon that’s as bizarre as it is fragile. Entangled particles are thought to lose this inexplicable link when exposed to outside factors. But now, physicists have ...

Regardless of the answers, the era of entanglement under infinite book‐keeping is giving way to an era of entanglement under limited books, limited clocks and limited gates. And in this more realistic ...

Receive emails about upcoming NOVA programs and related content, as well as featured reporting about current events through a science lens. The new microscope uses a 405 nm laser—the same wavelength ...

Trapped ions have previously only been entangled in one and the same laboratory. Now, teams have entangled two ions over a distance of 230 meters. The nodes of this network were housed in two labs at ...

A female sea lion has been freed from a severe neck entanglement, thanks to crews that responded to the distressed mammal.
