Securely Teleporting Images Using Light: A Quantum Leap in Communication
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Phys.org
Researchers have demonstrated the teleportation-like transport of "patterns" of light across a network using quantum communication. This breakthrough allows for the secure transmission of images without physically sending them, paving the way for a quantum network capable of handling high-dimensional entangled states. The team used a nonlinear optical detector to achieve this, eliminating the need for additional photons. The research opens up possibilities for practical applications, such as secure communication between customers and banks, and further advancements in nonlinear quantum optics.
