| So far, physicists have used only pairs of entangled particles, including photons, to transfer quantum information between locations, a technique known as quantum teleportation (SN: 6/19/04, p. Several years ago, other research teams demonstrated quantum teleportation using various quantum entities: photons, light beams, and multitudes of atoms within molecules of a liquid (SN: 1/17/98, p. In independent experiments, scientists in two European laboratories transferred a characteristic of one photon--the elementary particle of light--to another photon via a technique called quantum teleportation (SN: 1/17/98, p. |
