Toward unhackable communication: Single particles of light could bring the 'quantum internet'
Purdue researchers have created a new light source that generates at least 35 million photons per second, increasing the speed of quantum communication.
Hacker attacks on everything from social media accounts to government files could be largely prevented by the advent of quantum communication, which would use particles of light called "photons" to secure information rather than a crackable code.
