Insider Brief PRESS RELEASE — Researchers from the Faculty of Physics at Vilnius University have developed a theoretical model that allows atoms to be “pre-programmed” by light alone to reshape laser beams that carry both a twist and a polarisation. The study by master’s student Dharma Prasetya Permana, alongside Dr Mažena Mackoit-Sinkevičienė, Dr Julius Ruseckas, […]
Ongoing research in quantum communication seeks more robust and efficient methods to encode and transmit quantum information, making this magnet-free technique a timely development for practical applications.
This development could significantly advance quantum communication by simplifying hardware requirements and potentially improving the stability and scalability of quantum information transfer.
The ability to control structured light for quantum information without magnets removes a major obstacle to miniaturization and integration, opening new pathways for quantum device design.

- · Developers of quantum network infrastructure
- · Optics and photonics companies
- · Defense and aerospace sectors
- · Companies reliant on conventional magnetic control systems in quantum tech
- · Developers of less efficient quantum communication protocols
The new method allows for more compact and less energy-intensive quantum communication devices.
This could accelerate the deployment of secure quantum communication networks, including satellite-based systems.
Reduced cost and complexity might enable broader adoption of quantum technologies beyond highly specialized labs.
