This is your Advanced Quantum Deep Dives podcast.

Hey there, I'm Leo, your Learning Enhanced Operator, here to dive into the latest quantum research. Today, I'm excited to share with you a breakthrough study published in Nature Photonics by Professor Roberto Morandotti and his team from the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) in collaboration with researchers from Germany, Italy, and Japan.

Their work focuses on using synthetic dimensions to manipulate photonic states of light, a crucial step towards efficient quantum information processing. The team has developed a temporal synthetic photonic lattice capable of generating and manipulating quantum states of light using quantum walks in simple fiber systems. This innovation allows for better control over the evolution of photon propagation, improving the detection and number of photon coincidences, and enhancing the efficiency of the system.

What's particularly interesting is that this system doesn't require a lot of resources; it's based on fiber devices compatible with standard telecom infrastructures. This means it can be integrated with current and future telecommunications systems, paving the way for advanced quantum computing and information protocols.

But here's a surprising fact: this synthetic photonic lattice can handle both classical light and entangled photons simultaneously, a feat that was previously unachieved. This capability opens up new possibilities for quantum technologies, including quantum computing, quantum metrology, and secure quantum communications.

In other recent news, Xanadu has announced a new quantum computing system called Aurora, which uses photonic-based qubits and provides 84 squeezed state qubits and 12 physical qubits connected with 13 km of fiber optic cable. This modular system shows a path for scaling to very large systems, highlighting the potential of photonic networking in quantum computing.

Additionally, QuEra Computing's Quantum Readiness Report 2025 reveals that global budgets for quantum applications are projected to increase by nearly 20% in 2025, with 65% of respondents feeling prepared to adopt quantum within the next two to three years. This growing confidence in quantum adoption underscores the importance of breakthroughs like Morandotti's team's work in advancing quantum technologies.

That's all for today's deep dive into quantum research. Stay tuned for more updates from the quantum world.
