Quantum drum stores light data as sound, enabling lossless quantum memory for future quantum internet
• Researchers stored quantum data from light signals as vibrations in a quantum drum • This allows translation of data between light and sound, enabling quantum networks • The drum can receive, store, and retransmit quantum data without loss of coherence • It could act as quantum RAM in future networks and hardware • This technology may pave the way for an ultra-fast, ultra-secure quantum internet
