The study shows that in quantum devices, reading a clock consumes far more energy than running it. This insight will help ...

Quantum timekeeping has reached a new threshold, with trapped-ion clocks now accurate to the 19th decimal place and a ...

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates recently surprised the industry by bringing Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s stated timeline for quantum computing forward by almost a decade, saying that its phenomenal ...

How can the strange properties of quantum particles be exploited to perform extremely accurate measurements? This question is at the heart of the research field of quantum metrology. One example is ...

However, compared to a quantum clock, atomic clocks are as accurate as a one-dollar antique pocket watch that's been whacked several times with a coal hammer. By measuring how atoms jump between ...

A top-secret lab in the UK is developing the country's first quantum clock to help the British military boost intelligence and reconnaissance operations, the defense ministry said Thursday. The clock ...
