What does it take to build the future of quantum communications?

ORNL research scientist Joseph Chapman explains how quantum communications enables connections between quantum computers and sensors by preserving fragile properties like entanglement and superposition.

At Oak Ridge National Laboratory, researchers are moving this technology beyond the lab, demonstrating quantum networking over real-world fiber infrastructure and expanding to include free-space links for longer-distance communication.
