UChicago scientists invent ‘quantum flute’ that can make particles of light move together
From University of Chicago: Q-NEXT collaborator David Schuster and team have invented “quantum flute” that can coerce particles of light to move together in a way that’s never been seen before. The breakthrough, reported in Physical Review Letters and Nature Physics, could point the way toward realizing quantum memories or new forms of error correction in quantum computers and observing quantum phenomena that cannot be seen in nature.
