Quantum teleportation breakthrough achieved with diamonds

Physicists at the Kavli Institute of Nanoscience Delft say they achieved a breakthrough in quantum teleportation using diamonds. They’ve managed to teleport quantum information stored in one bit on diamond to another one, located three meters away. This breakthrough is a huge step into the next generation of computing, but the scientists still have work ...

Graphene made in a kitchen blender leads to transparent devices

No doubt graphene was indeed a miracle material ever since a pair of chemists from Manchester University first manufactured it. They isolated thick layers of carbon by peeling off the sheets from the powdered graphite using sellotape. Earlyer this year Samsung achieved a breakthrough, developing a technique for synthesizing graphene on a large scale. The material ...

Samsung achieves breakthrough with Graphene

Samsung researchers claim to have made a breakthrough, developing a technique for synthesizing graphene on a large scale. Graphene is an ultra-thin material of unusual strength and flexibility, it’s more conductive to electrical charge and heat than silicon. At the same time, it manages to be stronger than steel while still remaining flexible, therefore, graphene is ...
