Welinq, a leader in quantum networking technology, has launched the first commercial quantum memory designed specifically for quantum data centers with world-record performance. Quantum computing is reaching a turning point: with more than 100 individual quantum computers deployed in dedicated infrastructures, the next challenge is networking them into scalable, high-performance architectures.

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory joined forces with EPB of Chattanooga and the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga to demonstrate the first transmission of an entangled quantum signal using multiple wavelength channels and automatic polarization stabilization over a commercial network with no downtime.

Researchers at Deutsche Telekom Innovation Laboratories (T-Labs), together with the quantum networking company Qunnect (US & NL), have reached a milestone on the path to the quantum internet: demonstration of sustained, high fidelity (99%) transmission of entangled photons across 30 kilometers of commercially deployed fiber for 17 days.

Researchers have successfully demonstrated the UK’s first long-distance ultra-secure transfer of data over a quantum communications network, including the UK’s first long-distance quantum-secured video call. The team, from the Universities of Bristol and Cambridge, created the network, which uses standard fibreoptic infrastructure, but relies on a variety of quantum phenomena to enable ultra-secure data transfer.

IonQ, a leader in the quantum computing and networking industries, today announced a significant milestone in the development of high-speed, mixed-species quantum logic gates for trapped-ion quantum computing and networking. The findings further the company’s momentum in driving scalable, high-fidelity quantum networking and distributed quantum computing. Detailed in a new paper written by IonQ scientists and co-authored with Australian National University, the research shows a novel approach to achieving an orders-of-magnitude increase in physical gate speed of two-qubit gates between different atomic species.

Today Aliro announced the live deployment of the first AliroNet Quickstart network. This new multipurpose entanglement-based quantum network, deployed at Aliro headquarters, was designed and built to support a variety of applications such as quantum secure communications, networking of quantum processor units, interconnectivity of quantum sensors, and future qubit-based applications.

Quantum EncrYption and Science Satellite (QEYSSat), a satellite demonstrating secure ground-to-space quantum communication, will soon orbit the earth. And the researchers at the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) that are making that happen, along with collaborators at the University of Calgary and the Institut national d'optique (INO), have published a white paper outlining a future mission opportunity to establish a step towards a Canada wide quantum internet.

Now, in a recent study published in Physical Review Letters, Rey and JILA and NIST Fellow James K. Thompson, along with graduate student Sanaa Agarwal and researcher Asier Piñeiro Orioli from the University of Strasbourg, studied atom-light interactions in the case of effective four-level atoms, two ground (or metastable) and two excited levels arranged in specific one-dimensional and two-dimensional crystal lattices.

TELUS is excited to announce a collaboration with Photonic Inc., a pioneering BC-based company, to accelerate the development of next-generation quantum communications in Canada. TELUS will provide Photonic dedicated access to its advanced fibre-optic network, enabling the testing of groundbreaking quantum technologies and emerging solutions that promise to reshape Canada’s digital landscape, improve productivity and drive economic growth.

Photonic's architecture literally goes 'outside the box,' optically entangling and performing distributed computing between remote T centre spins using telecom photons, to uniquely solve industry’s longstanding scale problem.
