The dream of a functional, safe and ultra-efficient quantum internet has taken an important step outside the laboratory. University of Pennsylvania engineers managed to transmit quantum signals on commercial fiber optic cables using the same protocols as the current internet. This demonstration, published in Science magazine, was conducted with Verizon infrastructure and marks a milestone: it is the first time that a quantum network operates suc…

Mediafax Peoples of Science have been able to transmit for the first time quantitative signals through the standard fiber cables using the Internet protocol (IP), marking a significant progress towards a functional quantitative internet, according to Live Science. Researchers from the University of Pennsylvania developed the Q (Quantum-Classical Hybrid Internet via Photonics), which allows quantitative data to travel along classical signals thro…
