Scientists first teleported quantum information between two silicon chips

Researchers have developed devices based onsilicon photonic microcircuits that can use the features of quantum physics to generate and manipulate individual particles of light in programmable nanocircuits.

Quantum computers will potentially be able to solve problems that even modern supercomputers are unable to solemn, as well as ensure the adsolute security of transmitted information.However, this technology is based on quantum information in the form of encoded elementary particles, which are difficult to control andto measure.

Scientists from the University of Bristol in conjunction withcolleagues from the Danish Technical University for the first time demonstrated the successful teleportation of the quantum state of a photon between two programmable microcircuits.

In an experiment after measuring a particle,the team succeeded in simultaneously breaking the connection of its quantum entanglement and transferring this state to another particle located on the receiving chip. The teleportation accuracy was quite high and amounted to 91%.

Despite the complexity and bizarre nature of these technologies, researchers have recently been able to integrate quantum states into conventional electronic devices and control them with electricity.
