Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: For more than a decade, scientists have been investigating ways to develop a “quantum battery” that stores energy using photons rather than electrons ...

Over the past few years, some researchers have been working on alternative energy storage systems that leverage the principles of quantum mechanics. These systems, known as quantum batteries, could be ...

Over the past few years, researchers have developed various quantum technologies, alternatives to classical devices that operate by leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics. These technologies ...

The modern battery has come a long way in its 224-year history. In the place of Alessandro Volta’s piles of metal disks and brine-soaked cloth, we now have batteries the dimensions of a graham cracker ...

Dr James Quach joined the university this week, having been lured back from overseas with a four-year Ramsay Fellowship. While others have set their sights on quantum computers, Dr Quach believes the ...

In the world of next-generation energy, researchers are taking a leap beyond chemistry into the strange rules of quantum mechanics. A new type of battery, known as a quantum battery, is no longer just ...

A quantum battery has been built within a quantum computer, a first step in determining whether such batteries could play a role in powering future quantum technologies. Conventional batteries store ...
