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 ...

If you want to tile a bathroom floor, square tiles are the simplest option — they fit together without any gaps in a grid pattern that can continue indefinitely. That square grid has a property shared ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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. Subscribe to our newsletter ...

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 ...

Microsoft has unveiled Majorana 1, the world’s first quantum processor built using topological core architecture, an ...

Value stream management involves people in the organization to examine workflows and other processes to ensure they are deriving the maximum value from their efforts while eliminating waste — of ...

Lead author and PhD student Vassili Matsos looking at the Paul trap quantum computing device in the Quantum Control Laboratory at the University of Sydney. To build a large-scale quantum computer that ...
