Researchers from Technion have made breakthrough discoveries in quantum entanglement, shedding light on a new kind of entanglement that could revolutionize quantum technology. Quantum entanglement, a phenomenon where particles are linked regardless of distance, has intrigued scientists for years. The new research, led by Ph.D. student Amit Kam and Dr. Shai Tsesses, explores how photons confined to small spaces display unexpected behavior. This type of entanglement, called total angular momentum, merges different properties of photons into a single description. The findings suggest that compact hardware for quantum computing and communication could be developed using this unique entanglement feature. By compressing photons into nanostructures, researchers aim to create more efficient technology that maximizes the potential of quantum effects. This research could pave the way for faster computations, compact hardware, and more efficient data processing methods in the future. The study is published in the journal Nature and is part of ongoing efforts to unlock the full potential of quantum technology in real-world applications. The scientists’ work builds on Einstein’s contributions in quantum theory and represents a significant step forward in understanding and harnessing quantum entanglement for practical applications.
