Scientists from the Joint Laboratory of Optics have become the first in the world to experimentally confirm a link between the uncertainty of a quantum state and quantum entanglement — a connection theoretically predicted by physicists from Japan and Taiwan. The results of their scientific work, published in a prestigious journal by Springer Nature, offer a completely new perspective on previously unknown relationships governing the functioning of nature at the quantum level.
Scientists from the Joint Laboratory of Optics, a collaboration between Palacký University and the Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences, have significantly refined and improved the efficiency of quantum entanglement tests, which play a crucial role in the development of quantum computers, by incorporating artificial intelligence. Their research results were recently published in the prestigious journal Physical Review Research.
Nobel Prize laureate for experiments with quantum-entangled photons, Professor Alain Aspect, visited the Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences. At the FZU headquarters in Prague, he delivered a lecture titled "From Einstein and Bell to Quantum Technologies: Entanglement in Action". Three representatives from the Joint Laboratory of Optics of Palacký University and the Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences attended both the lecture and the subsequent discussion.
All physical systems can be roughly divided onto two types. Namely, conservative or Hermitian systems, where the whole system energy is preserved, and non-conservative or non-Hermitian systems, where the energy can irreversibly flow between the system and its surrounding environment.
