NIST Researchers Scale Superconducting Photon Detectors “Bigly”

NIST researchers have fabricated superconducting photon detectors measuring 0.1 mm—about 1,000 times wider than conventional nanowire designs. The architecture delivers a billion-fold reduction in dark counts while simplifying large-area fabrication. Technical details on current redistribution and application implications appear in the Optica paper and NIST release.

Northwestern Demonstrates Quantum Teleportation Over Busy Fiber

Northwestern University engineers have demonstrated quantum teleportation on a busy fiber optic cable carrying Internet data. Their approach simplifies the infrastructure needed for advanced sensing or quantum computing by placing quantum information in a low-traffic wavelength. The method supports high-speed classical data and quantum signals without requiring new fiber installations.
