Quantum entanglement research via dissipation

Overview

Physicists from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and the University of Chicago have demonstrated a method to generate sustained quantum entanglement by harnessing environmental dissipation, or energy leakage, through a technique called ‘synthetic squeezing’.

By applying this technique to superconducting qubits, the researchers successfully created entanglement that persists in a steady state. This approach aims to bypass the fragile transport stages required in conventional entanglement generation, potentially offering a more robust and scalable method for long-distance quantum communication and addressing decoherence issues in quantum networks.
