ADVA is playing a key role in a unique research initiative extending post-quantum security to VPN networks. The company has supplied its ADVA FSP 150 with ConnectGuard Ethernet encryption for the Quantum-Secure VPN Modules and Operation Modes (QuaSiModO) project, which is being conducted by the Fraunhofer Institute of Applied and Integrated Security, the Ludwig Maximilian […]
The OPENQKD project, whose mission is to create and trial a secure communication network across Europe based on quantum key distribution (QKD), will leverage ADVA’s FSP 3000 and FSP 150 platforms. ADVA will provide optical and Ethernet encryptors as well as open line systems for multiple testbed locations. OPENQKD, which is funded by the European […]
by James E. Carroll IBM is adding the first quantum computing service to its publically accessible cloud. The new service runs on IBM’s quantum processor located at the company’s T. J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown, NY. The quantum processor is composed of five superconducting qubits. IBM said its quantum computing platform has the potential […]
Researchers at NTT demonstrated the wavelength conversion of a single-photon wave packet required for quantum information-communication technologies. The company said the technique enables it deterministically change the color and shape of a single-photon wave packet in a lossless manner. NTT lossless scheme utilized an all-optical effect called cross-phase modulation (XPM) to control the phase of […]
The U.S. Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) program has award a multiyear research grant to IBM to advance the building blocks for a universal quantum computer. The award is funded under the Logical Qubits (LogiQ) program of IARPA led by Dr. David Moehring. The LogiQ Program seeks to overcome the limitations of current quantum […]
Imec and Ghent University demonstrated for the first time the ability to grow indium phosphide lasers monolithically integrated on 300mm silicon substrates in a CMOS pilot line. The researchers used a production grade metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxial (MOVPE) growth reactor to grow an indium phosphide semiconductor in a pre-patterned oxide template , realizing indium phosphide waveguide […]
Researchers at the University of New South Wales in Australia have built a quantum logic gate in silicon for the first time — a major step toward quantum computers. “We’ve demonstrated a two-qubit logic gate – the central building block of a quantum computer – and, significantly, done it in silicon. Because we use essentially […]
Researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and NTT have transferred quantum information carried in light particles over 100 km of optical fiber, four times farther than the previous record. The breakthrough could lead to quantum repeaters, opening the door to quantum communications over long distances of fiber. Previously, quantum state has […]
Nippon Telegraph and Telephone(NTT) and The University of Tokyo reported progress in developing a quantum cryptography scheme that can assure security without monitoring the error rate of photon transmission. In an article in the UK science journal “Nature Photonics”, the researchers describe a quantum key distribution (QKD) experiment based on a novel QKD scheme called […]
