Scientists Turn Ordinary Light Into a Quantum Computing Tool
The Quark Side - Quantum Physics PodcastShow Notes
Could ordinary light be turned into a powerful quantum computing tool?
Researchers have developed a room-temperature system that uses individual photons and the natural fluctuations of classical light to perform quantum-like information processing. The approach could make quantum simulations and multiphoton technologies far more practical and scalable.
