• Created Chip Churns out High-Dimensional Entangled Photons

  International team of scientists led by Roberto Morandotti, professor at Canadian National Research Institute in Quebec and ITMO University in Saint Petersburg, Russia, has developed an optical chip able to generate, manipulate and transmit stable high-dimensional entangled photons. In the paper published in Nature, the researchers showed that this all is possible using conventional telecommunication components. The newborn particles support a hundred quantum states, that can be enhanced by two orders of magnitude in the future. As the team notes, the high-dimensional photons are linked more sustainably and thus increase stability of optical computing.
