Researchers have created a chip-based device that can split phonons—tiny packets of mechanical vibration that can carry information in quantum systems. By filling a key gap, this device could help ...
You can’t divide the indivisible, unless you use quantum mechanics. Physicists have now turned to quantum effects to split phonons, the smallest bits of sound, researchers report in the June 9 Science ...
Researchers developed a chip-based single-phonon directional coupler that carries out controllable splitting and achieves quantum-level performance. The device could enable microscopic on-chip routers ...
Device could help link different quantum systems, supporting advances in computing and secure communication. (Nanowerk News) Researchers have created a chip-based device that can split phonons — tiny ...
