A new technical paper titled “Metrics and Methodology for Hardware Security Constructs” was published by NIST. Abstract “Although hardware is commonly believed to be security-resilient, it is often ...

Developed in collaboration with UC Santa Barbara, Cisco’s Quantum Network Entanglement Chip is a research prototype that generates pairs of entangled photons, enabling instantaneous connection ...

To make their quantum thermometer, the NIST team started by placing rubidium gas in a vacuum chamber. They cooled it to near absolute zero—around 0.5 millikelvin—using lasers and magnetic fields.

Usually that’s done using some reference surface that’s held at a constant temperature via some sort of contact thermometer, and that contact thermometer has been calibrated to another contact ...
