MIT engineers have achieved a major leap towards fault-tolerant quantum computing by demonstrating an order-of-magnitude stronger nonlinear light-matter coupling. This breakthrough promises nanosecond-speed quantum information readout and processing, significantly accelerating the path to practical quantum computation.

![Figure 1: Sketch of the evolution of the Universe over the last 13.77 billion years. It started with the Big Bang, followed by an extremely short period of rapid exponential expansion. The furthest we can see is the cosmic microwave background, when radiation decoupled from matter, approximately 380,000 years after the Big Bang. This is followed by the ‘dark ages,’ during which this radiation redshifted from the visible regime into infrared and sub-mm wavelengths. The occurrence of the first stars, about 400 million years after the Big Bang, ended this phase, spearheading the formation of galaxies as we see them today.
