New TechnologiesResearchers Build 11-Mile-Long Quantum Highway Using Photons Posted on July 13, 2025 by Administrator Researchers at the University of Rochester and Rochester Institute of Technology have recently linked their campuses using an experimental quantum communications network built with two optical fibers. In a new paper published in Optica Quantum, the team introduces the Rochester Quantum Network (RoQNET), which transmits information using single photons over approximately 11 miles of fiber-optic cable at room temperature and optical wavelengths.
