Quantum Teleportation Reported in a Qutrit For The First Time

By David Nield Earlier this year, we celebrated a first in the field of quantum physics: scientists were able to ‘teleport’ a qutrit, or a piece of quantum information based on three states, opening up a whole host of new possibilities for quantum computing and communication. Up until then, quantum teleportation had only been managed with qubits, albeit over impressively …
