World’s First Modular Quantum Computer Operates at Room Temperature
A room-temperature quantum computer has been developed by Xanadu, addressing scalability and error correction challenges in the field. Named Aurora, the system uses photonic qubits and connects multiple modules via fibre optics, removing the need for extreme cooling. Published in Nature, the study highlights its potential for large-scale quantum da...

Life-Like Self-Organising Laser Can Mimics Living Materials, Reconfigures in Changing Conditions
In a study, published in Nature, the team from Imperial College London have used an external laser to heat up a Janus particle, which was coated with light-absorbing material on one side. The microparticle clusters gathered around the coating and the lasing thus created could be turned on and off by tweaking the intensity of the external laser.

World's Thinnest Light Bulb is Here
Imagine how thin a light 'bulb' could be? Well, it could be just one atom thick!

Physicists Achieve Longer Distance Quantum Teleportation
Physicists in Switzerland said Sunday they had succeeded in teleporting the quantum state of a photon to a crystal, in which information transited from light to matter, over a record distance of 25 kilometres (15.5 miles).

New Metamaterial May Pave Way for Photonics to Replace Electronics
"Our material can put a twist into light - that is, rotate its polarisation - orders of magnitude more strongly than natural materials."
