Achieving high qubit counts in near-term quantum computers is challenging. Top problems include refining how qubits are measured and error correction. Parametric amplifier devices are typically used for measuring qubits; however, the device…

Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology created the world’s first functional semiconductor made from graphene, opening the door to a new way of doing electronics. Silicon is reaching its limit due to increasingly faster computing…

Quantum mechanics laws assert that quantum particles are indivisible and cannot be split. However, researchers at the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) at the University of Chicago are looking into what happens if you try.…

Researchers from the University of Rochester outlined a new method to control electron spin in silicon quantum dots that we can use to manipulate data in a quantum system. They published their findings in a paper in Nature Physics. The…

by Jon Gabay, engineer So, you think your passwords are protecting you from hackers and criminals? Think again. Digital data and encryption have never been 100% secure, but with the increasing advancement of quantum computers, our…

Okay, so it's still early in the discussion phase. Still, it looks like the US is trying to expand the restrictions on semiconductors to include other emerging technologies, such as quantum computing and artificial intelligence. The goal is…

Baidu unveiled its first superconducting quantum computer that fully integrates hardware, software, and applications. It also introduced the world's first all-platform quantum hardware-software integration solution giving access to various…

Quantum computer construction is exceptionally costly. However, a new technique from the University of Melbourne-led team creates large-scale patterns of counted atoms. They control the atoms so that quantum states can be manipulated,…

Once quantum computers are ubiquitous, a quantum internet will need to be in place to communicate. Purdue University is addressing the challenge of developing quantum networks able to support more than a few users. Their research, published…

A central challenge of powerful quantum computing is the ability to build universal quantum computers from fragile quantum components. Quantum error correction (QEC) is used in quantum computing to protect quantum information from errors…
