Quantum Internet

The quantum internet promises advanced encryption methods that are impervious to future quantum decryption. Researchers aim to merge these technologies to enhance both security and functionality in telecommunications.

Apple is updating iMessage with a PQ3 new cryptographic protocol to protect users from sophisticated attacks using quantum computers. According to Apple, the new encryption protocol could protect users from scenarios where encrypted data has been stored, only to be decrypted using a quantum computer at a later date.

US President Joe Biden is planning to sign an executive order to limit critical US technology investments in China by mid-August. The order focuses on semiconductors, artificial intelligence and quantum computing. It won't affect any existing investments and will only prohibit certain transactions.

Microsoft on Wednesday introduced a new computing service aimed at helping chemical companies speed up the research and development of new materials. Azure Quantum Elements, as the service is called, relies on computing power to help chemical companies simulate huge numbers of possible combinations of atoms. The point is to use computers to explore...

India and New Zealand on Thursday decided to increase cooperation in areas such as facilitation of UPI system, timely resolution of trade issues, work visa, and improving the banking relations. Looking at the present quantum of bilateral trade between the two countries, both sides acknowledged the huge potential and the need for bringing in synergy...

The National Quantum Mission (NQM) was approved by the Union Cabinet on Wednesday. The NQM involves a cost of Rs 6,003.65 crore from 2023-24 to 2030-31 and will help nurture and scale up scientific and industrial research and development in quantum technology in the country. India joins the US, Austria, Finland, France, Canada and China as the seve...

India's first quantum computing-based telecom network link is now operational in the national capital, telecom minister Ashwini Vaishnaw announced on Monday. The minister also announced a Rs. 10 lakh reward for ethical hackers who can break the encryption of the system.

New York-based quantum computer startup SEEQC said on Wednesday it has developed a digital chip that can operate at temperatures colder than outer space so it can be used with quantum processors that are often in cryogenic chambers. Quantum computers, based on quantum physics, have the potential one day to complete some calculations millions of tim...

India and the White House will launch the US-India Initiative on Critical and Emerging Technologies (ICET) partnership to help both countries compete with China on semiconductors, artificial intelligence, and more. The partnership also includes a joint effort on space and high-performance quantum computing.

Ericsson on Tuesday said that it would invest millions of pounds on 6G mobile research in the UK. The network equipment maker says it plans to work with universities on hardware security, AI and cognitive networks and quantum computing. Ericsson wants to establish a team of 20 experienced researchers in the UK and will also look to sponsor students...

IBM Osprey was launched on Wednesday as the company's most powerful quantum computer. The latest machine from IBM is a 433-qubit machine, which has three times the number of qubits than its Eagle machine from 2021. Meanwhile, IBM's director of research said the company is still on track to launch a computer with over 1000 qubits but further scalin...

Bosch is teaming up with IBM in the field of quantum computing as the firms seek to find surrogates for precious metals and rare earths in carbon-neutral powertrains within the next decade, using simulation technology. The company says it will invest EUR 10 billion (roughly Rs. 81,700 crore) in digitalisation and connectivity over the next three ye...

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania just got a trailer, way ahead of its release on February 17, 2023. The Ant-Man 3 trailer sees our size-shifting family being sucked into the Quantum Realm, ruled by the villainous Kang the Conqueror. There’s a brief glimpse at Bill Murray’s unnamed character as well, who makes his foray into the MCU with Ant-Ma...

Paving the way for the construction of massive and much more scalable quantum computers, researchers at Simon Fraser University, Canada, have marked a major breakthrough in the development of quantum technology, paving the way for scalable quantum computers and a ‘quantum internet’ to connect them.

Researchers from Delft University of Technology have teleported quantum information across a basic network, taking a big step towards the quantum Internet. This accomplishment was made feasible by significantly increased quantum memory and improved quantum link quality between the network's three nodes.
