SCIENTISTS PULL OFF QUANTUM TELEPORTATION BETWEEN PHOTONS FROM DIFFERENT QUANTUM DOTS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Researchers in Germany have demonstrated the first transfer of quantum information between photons emitted by two different quantum dots. The work is part of a project to build quantum repeaters that fit into existing fiber networks. Any attempt to read or intercept quantum communications leaves traces, making systems inherently secure. The current setup teleports information with a success rate of slightly above 70%. This could be improved by stabilizing the quantum dots.
