Corrections Policy

Last updated: 30 July 2026

The Quantum of Light corrects material errors promptly and visibly. This page explains what we correct, how corrections appear, and how to request one.

What we correct

A material error is a published fact that is wrong: a name, a figure, an attribution, a claim. When we find one, or one is pointed out to us, we fix the article and append a dated correction note stating what was wrong and what is right, for example:

Correction (30 July 2026): An earlier version of this article misstated the size of the funding round. It was $24.3 million, not $19.1 million.

Minor fixes that do not change the substance of an article, such as typos, formatting and broken links, are made without a note. Articles that develop after publication may be updated with new information; updates are reflected in the article's updated date and are distinct from corrections.

How to request a correction

If you believe we have published something inaccurate, email us with a link to the article and the specific claim you believe is wrong. We review every request and reply when a correction is made.
