At a time when there is great research going on in quantum physics and quantum computers are being made, Chinese researchers have made\u00a0the world’s first quantum router<\/a>. This technology of future will send quantum information.\u00a0Instead of sending just the 0s and 1s of digital code, quantum communication can send information in a superposition of states that represent both 0s and 1s at the same time.<\/p>\n

Currently the scientists are able to\u00a0send the photons directly through one fibre, but routing comes in when another fibre is needed. The problem is that\u00a0reading a control signal in the quantum world actually destroys it. It makes it impossible to route\u00a0using data embedded within the signal.<\/p>\n

The quantum router offered by\u00a0Tsinghau University in China creates a quantum photon\u00a0that acts as both 1 and 0 (the combined 1s and 0s). It\u00a0is a superposition of two separate photons that are in horizontal and vertical polarized states. This\u00a0photon is then broken down into two photons that share the combined state.\u00a0Then, a router can read data from one photon, which it destroys, and use the remaining one as the data signal.<\/p>\n

But it doesn’t means that we would get a quantum powered super-fast internet. Scientists say that it is just a proof of concept right now. But this technology is still limited and a lot of work needs to be done on it.<\/p>\n
