A team of scientists at the QOT Centre for Quantum Optical Technologies, including a student from the Faculty of Physics (University of Warsaw), made a device capable of the conversion of quantum information between microwave and optical photons. The results of research, published in "Nature Photonics" magazine, highlight a new microwave detection method with possible applications in quantum technologies, as a part of quantum network infrastructure, and in microwave radio-astronomy. Conversion of quantum information Whenever you listen to a song on your phone or computer, a conversion of information happens – a file digitally encoded in your device's memory is converted to an electric current driving your headphones.
