For quantum computers to go from research curiosities to practically useful devices, researchers need to get their errors under control. New research from Microsoft and Quantinuum has now taken a ...

There are some obvious big picture issues that stand between us and useful quantum computing. Issues like whether we can make ...

Quantum computing is still in its infancy, easily beaten by traditional computers. One of the biggest challenges? The fact that quantum bits — qubits — are much more fragile than the bits in silicon ...

In contrast to classical computers, which operate on bits that can only take the basic values 0 and 1, quantum computers operate on "qubits," which can assume any superposition of the computational ...

IQM Quantum Computers, the global leader in superconducting quantum computers, today announced a significant achievement in ...

Today’s quantum computing hardware is severely limited in what it can do by errors that are difficult to avoid. There can be problems with everything from setting the initial state of a qubit to ...

Ripples spreading across a calm lake after raindrops fall—and the way ripples from different drops overlap and travel outward—is one image that helps us picture how a quantum computer handles ...
