Many physicists and engineers have recently been trying to demonstrate the potential of quantum computers for tackling some ...

UC Santa Barbara researchers are working to move cold atom quantum experiments and applications from the laboratory tabletop ...

Major technological breakthroughs can, over time, create trillions in shareholder value. Quantum computing looks like one ...

Researchers observed a long-predicted fractal energy pattern in twisted carbon materials, confirming quantum theories.

It cannot do any useful work until it somehow is extended with many more qubits, known in technical terms as "scaling" the device. The topological qubit is unlike other quantum devices because of ...

Packing all these processors in a single device, however, would require a machine of an immense size. In this new approach, small quantum devices are linked together, enabling computations to be ...

Microsoft Quantum published an article in Nature on Feb. 19 detailing recent advances in the measurement of quantum devices that will be needed to realize a topological quantum computer. Among the ...

In this episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast, we explore how computational physics is being used to develop new ...

But quantum computers, when they come, promise to increase that power for certain types of computations to levels no binary-based device could conceivably reach. Quantum computers use a different ...

"The long-term vision is, you could potentially build quantum machines or devices that use these three or even all four of these properties: photons to transfer information, electrons to process ...

Some estimates say a quantum device capable of breaking current encryption would require 10,000 qubits, while others say millions would be needed. Today’s systems have a few hundred at most.

Packing all these processors in a single device, however, would require a machine of an immense size. In this new approach, small quantum devices are linked together, enabling computations to be ...
