Photon Gun Could Further Development of Photonic Quantum Network
COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Feb. 21, 2017 — A photonic nanostructure for constructing quantum photonic circuits for quantum networks has been developed, which could impact the optics and photonics that underlie quantum information processing. Photons (unlike electrons) display weak interaction with their environment, so they do not lose a lot of energy during transmission. This makes them well suited to carrying and distributing information over long distances. A quantum network based on photons would be able to encode much more
