1+ hour, 31+ min ago  (247+ words) Previously, linking diamond's quantum memories to photonic control systems meant accepting substantial signal loss. Now, light can be transferred between diamond and lithium niobate with a loss of only 1 dB per coupler, a step towards scalable quantum networks. This integration…...

1+ hour, 47+ min ago  (884+ words) Until now, quantum error correction demanded resource states fixed in size, or endlessly layered to manage expanding computational needs. Scalable postselection offers a different path, allowing resource sizes to grow with the complexity of the problem itself. This technique demonstrably…...
