Classical computing has operated as the fundamental power behind our digital world for many decades. Modern civilization relies on classical systems to operate smartphones and global financial ...
Quantum computing may one day outperform classical machines in solving certain complex problems, but when and how this “quantum advantage” emerges has remained unclear. Now, researchers from Kyoto ...
To build a large-scale quantum computer that works, scientists and engineers need to overcome the spontaneous errors that quantum bits, or qubits, create as they operate. Scientists encode these ...
With the U.S. and China each boasting new breakthroughs, the real-world application of quantum computing is moving closer – with major implications for national security. The year 2024 ended with a ...
Quantum-safe Bitcoin designs now exist in practice. BTQ’s testnet shows that post-quantum cryptography can operate in a ...
A research team has created a quantum logic gate that uses fewer qubits by encoding them with the powerful GKP error-correction code. By entangling quantum vibrations inside a single atom, they ...
“We are honored to partner with UMD, one of the world’s leading academic institutions in quantum computing,” said Sumit Kapur, Chief Executive Officer of Zapata Quantum. “This collaboration positions ...
Quantum computing may still be regarded by many IT leaders as a very niche technology, but broader business use cases may be just a few years away. While only a handful of companies have machines with ...
Using a powerful machine made up of 56 trapped-ion quantum bits, or qubits, researchers have achieved something once thought impossible. They have proven, for the first time, that a quantum computer ...
