Imagine an internet where your data can’t be stolen, your messages are completely private and online security is unbreakable. That’s the promise of quantum internet: a futuristic technology that could ...

Penn engineers have taken quantum networking from the lab to Verizon’s live fiber network, using a silicon “Q-chip” that speaks the same Internet Protocol as the modern web. The system pairs classical ...

Imagine the benefits if the entire internet got a game-changing upgrade to speed and security. This is the promise of the quantum internet—an advanced system that uses single photons to operate.

The quantum internet offers immense promise, as it aims to use things like superposition and entanglement to create a super-secure internet. These phenomena rely on qubits (quantum bits), and a new ...

In a first-of-its-kind experiment, engineers at the University of Pennsylvania brought quantum networking out of the lab and onto commercial fiber-optic cables using the same Internet Protocol (IP) ...

Quantum networking has long sounded like science fiction, but a series of recent lab results is turning it into a practical engineering problem. Researchers are now pushing fragile quantum states ...
