The coming, second quantum revolution promises spy-proof communication, extremely precise quantum sensors and quantum computers for previously unsolvable computing tasks. But this revolution is still in its infancy. A central research object is the interface between local quantum devices and light quanta that enable the remote transmission of highly sensitive quantum information. The Otto-Hahn group \u201cQuantum Networks\u201d at the Max-Planck-Institute of Quantum Optics in Garching is researching such a \u201cquantum modem\u201d. The team has now achieved a first breakthrough in a relatively simple but highly efficient technology that can be integrated into existing fibre optic networks. The work is published this week in \u201cPhysical Review X\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Physicists at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics have developed the basic technology for a new \u201cquantum modem\u201d.
