One of the pieces of equipment for the quantum random number generator in the NIST Boulder laboratories. Very little in this life is truly random. A coin flip is influenced by the flipper’s force, its ...

First, by incorporating crucial components such as tunnel junctions, amplifiers, Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADC), and Digital Signal Processing (DSP) units into a microchip through the use of a ...

"That's so random" is a common saying people use when they see or experience something unexpected. But as a concept in physics, true mathematical randomness has long proven elusive - until now. A team ...

A team including CU PREP researchers and scientists from CU Boulder and NIST have built the first random number generator using quantum entanglement to produce verifiable random numbers. Dubbed CURBy, ...

Another quantum computing record has been broken. A team has built a quantum computer with the largest ever number of so-called logical qubits, or quantum bits. Unlike standard qubits, logical qubits ...

For the first time, scientists have observed electrons in graphene behaving like a nearly perfect quantum fluid, challenging a long-standing puzzle in physics. By creating ultra-clean samples, the ...
