A new partnership for a quantum-secured Internet

A Quantum Key Distribution link has been established between the ICT center of the University of Padua (ASIT) and VSIX: the North East Neutral Access Point, where different Internet Service Providers exchange their traffic. A first step towards a future Internet secured by quantum technologies !

New field trial of ressource effective QKD in Padua

Researchers of the QuantumFuture group demonstrate an automated, easy-to-operate Quantum Key Distribution(QKD) system using an ordinary fiber network in the city of Padua. Find out more in the the linked interview with the Optical Society of America (OSA) which highlighted their work as Editor's Pick .

Collegamento a PaduaQTech makes the headlines

Advances in research

Scientists at the University of Stuttgart develop a quantum computer demonstrator with several hundred qubits based on Rydberg atoms. Prof. Montangero, QTech Center Vice Director, will be in charge of the benchmarking of the quantum computer results with highly challenging simulations performed on classical supercomputers .
