The ground-breaking research on light, quantum physics and quantum technologies is being conducted by scientists at the University of Rostock, led by Professor Alexander Szameit. The initial research results have since been published in Science Advances<\/em><\/a> journal.<\/p>\n Light offers a multitude of photonic technologies such as material processing, eye operations and the transmission of massive amounts of data through fibre optic cables. Referring to his research on optical quantum computers, Szameit commented that \u201clight can also calculate faster than our computers.\u201d<\/p>\n The internet consists of a vast number of entries connected to each other by hyperlinks. Currently, one of the most important challenges for today\u2019s quantum technologies, is developing an equally dense quantum network.<\/p>\n \u201cDrawing the World Wide Web from points and connections is child’s play. All you need is pen and paper and a lot of patience,\u201d joked Professor Szameit. The technical implementation for quantum networks poses far more challenges.<\/p>\n
