Scientists say human teleportation is ‘possible’ as they transfer atoms three metres in groundbreaking experiment

In Prof Hansons’ experiment, three entangled particles – a nitrogen atom locked in a diamond crystal and two electrons – were used to transfer spin information a distance of three metres.

Four possible states were transmitted, each corresponding to a ‘qubit’, the quantum equivalent of a digital ‘bit’.

Each ‘bit’ of information in a classical computer represents one of two values, normally zero or one.

But a ‘qubit’ can represent a zero, a one, or a ‘superposition’ of both states at the same time.
