Claim 1 of 6Not checkedA team of physicists led by Jietai Jing of East China Normal University achieved quantum teleportation across 100 simultaneous channels by successfully teleporting the quantum information encoded in a 100-pixel image.View evidenceHide evidence
As stated100 simultaneous channels; 100-pixel image
Not checked
The source study was found, but this claim couldn't be checked against it.
Claim 2 of 6Not checkedJing said that, as far as they know, this is the largest number of independently addressable quantum teleportation channels ever demonstrated simultaneously, and that the architecture could provide a flexible high-capacity interface for future quantum communication networks.View evidenceHide evidence
As statedlargest number ever demonstrated simultaneously
Not checked
The source study was found, but this claim couldn't be checked against it.
Claim 3 of 6Not checkedThe researchers arranged 100 spatially separated modes of light in a 10-by-10 grid, created a matching grid of entangled light, and used an all-optical system to process all 100 channels in parallel rather than requiring separate electronic feedforward for each one.View evidenceHide evidence
As stated100 spatial modes; 10-by-10 grid
Not checked
The source study was found, but this claim couldn't be checked against it.
Claim 4 of 6Not checkedIn the experiment, the image was encoded into a 10 × 10 array of spatial optical modes, with each mode treated like a pixel; the pattern collectively represented the letter 'Q'.View evidenceHide evidence
As stated10 × 10 array; letter 'Q'
Not checked
The source study was found, but this claim couldn't be checked against it.
Claim 5 of 6Not checkedThe researchers reported an average fidelity of 0.60 across the image, compared with a classical limit of 0.52 without entanglement, and said the teleportation fidelity exceeded the classical limit across all 100 spatial modes.View evidenceHide evidence
As statedaverage fidelity 0.60; classical limit 0.52
Not checked
The source study was found, but this claim couldn't be checked against it.
Claim 6 of 6Not checkedThe story says the researchers believe the approach could help quantum networks scale bandwidth and complexity, and that the 10-by-10 array was limited mainly by about one watt of laser pump power, with more powerful lasers potentially allowing many more channels.View evidenceHide evidence
As statedabout one watt of laser power
