Technology giant IBM has reached a major milestone in its quantum ambitions and has unveiled a new chip and machine that it hopes can help solve problems beyond the scope of traditional computers. The ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. 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 ...

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 ...

The company said it is able to reduce error rates in its quantum computing capabilities by 1,000-fold thanks to four-dimensional geometric codes. Quantum Computing ...

"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 ...

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 computers are computing systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects. These computers rely on qubits (i.e., the quantum equivalent of bits), which can store ...

Microsoft released new open-source quantum development tools, expanding the Quantum Development Kit. VS Code and GitHub Copilot now play a more central role in ...

Google researchers have warned that quantum computers could break widely used encryption systems by 2029, a timeline that ...
