Capturing a single photon of light: Harnessing quantum’s ‘noise problem’

This illustration depicts a newly developed component, known as a Josephson junction that can detect a single photon of light. The research, led by Raytheon Intelligence & Space, has potential applications for sensors, communications and quantum computers.
