The future of quantum technologies could be written in sand, according to researchers from the University of Bristol in the UK A group at the institution demonstrated high-fidelity quantum photonic circuits using waveguides made of silicon dioxide, or silica - the main constituent of sand - on silicon, The investigators constructed a two-photon quantum interference and a controlled-NOT gate device, the latter achieving an average logical basis fidelity of greater than 94 percent.
