Stanford scientists just built a room-temperature quantum device that uses “twisted light” to connect electrons and photons — an long-sought breakthrough that c... (opens in new tab)

Most of the quantum technology you’ve read about over the last decade comes with a hidden footnote. Yes, IBM and Google have built impressive quantum computers. Yes, quantum communication has been demonstrated in laboratories around the world. But almost all of it has run on machinery cooled to temperatures barely above absolute zero — roughly […]
