Researchers in Austria are pursuing a new path to increase the information capacity of complex quantum systems – instead of just increasing the number of particles involved, the complexity of each system is increased. By using a computer algorithm Melvin that autonomously searches for an experimental implementation, they entangled three photons beyond the conventional two-dimensional nature using quantum systems which have more than two possible states — in this particular case, the angular momentum of individual light particles. The individual photons now have a higher information capacity than QuBits. The developed methods and technologies could in the future enable the teleportation of complex quantum systems…read more.
