Discovery is a significant step toward multi-channel quantum communication and higher capacity quantum computers. An international team has built a chip that generates multiple frequencies from a robust quantum system that produces time-bin entangled photons. In contrast to other quantum state realizations, entangled photons don’t need bulky equipment to keep them in their quantum state, and they can transmit quantum information across long distances...
