EU Consortium to Prevent Quantum Cyberattacks
BRUSSELS, Feb. 25, 2020 — Scientists at the EU’s €1 billion Quantum Technology (QT) Flagship initiative have developed quantum encryption protocols to create what they’re calling the most secure transmission of sensitive information through the internet. The QT Flagship is supporting four consortia: The CiViQ (continuous variable quantum communications) consortium has developed QKD (quantum key distribution) protocols to secure digital information; researchers at QRANGE have created quantum random
Speed Limit for Electrical Switching Revealed
MENLO PARK, Calif., July 31, 2013 — An optical laser pulse has shattered the ordered electronic structure in an insulating sample of magnetite, switching the material to electrically conducting in a picosecond (one-trillionth of a second). The discovery could lead to faster, more...
All-Optical Switching Promises THz Hard Drives
AMES, Iowa, April 5, 2013 — Magnetic memory technology could become at least 1000 times faster with an ultrashort laser pulse technique that switches magnetism — a method used to encode information in hard drives, magnetic random access memory and other computing devices. The...
