Just like any machine, quantum computers are prone to make errors. These errors can cause the qubits to lose their quantum states, leading to inaccurate computations. To address this problem, quantum ...

"Our quantum error-correcting code has a greater than 1/2 code rate, targeting hundreds of thousands of logical qubits," explains Kasai. "Moreover, its decoding complexity is proportional to the ...

Chinese team is first outside the US to cross key threshold that determines whether practical quantum computers can work ...

Quantum is smart. The progression toward embryonic quantum computing services represents a shift (you know what kind) in terms of the amount of intelligence we can apply to computing, data analytics ...

Two-dimensional projection of a quantum spherical code composed of two copies (black and red) of the four complex dimensional Witting polytope. This code can correct up to five photon losses of any ...

A multinational team has cracked a long-standing barrier to reliable quantum computing by inventing an algorithm that lets ordinary computers faithfully mimic a fault-tolerant quantum circuit built on ...

Building on a landmark algorithm, researchers propose a way to make a smaller and more noise-tolerant quantum factoring circuit for cryptography. The most recent email you sent was likely encrypted ...

Quantum computing, still in its infancy, promises to revolutionize computational power by leveraging quantum mechanics — using qubits that exist in superpositions of 1 and 0, unlike classical bits.
