Researchers at Google and UC Santa Barbara have made good on their claim to quantum supremacy. Using 53 entangled qubits, their Sycamore computer has taken on and solved a problem considered intractable for classical computers.
Samsung and Mubadala Capital, a Emirati investment fund, are leading a new $55 Million funding round for IonQ, the startup that uses “trapped ions,” or charged particles suspended in a vacuum, as the basis for
Researchers at University of Basel have succeeded in creating an efficient quantum-mechanical light-matter interface using a microscopic cavity. Within this cavity, a single photon is emitted and absorbed up to 10 times by an artificial
A very interesting paper from IBM Quantum Computing Team as an answer to the famous leaked preprint of Google regarding quantum supremacy. Some excerpts: Recent advances in quantum computing have resulted in two 53-qubit processors:
Founded in 2017, HQS provides the software to facilitate the coming revolution in computationally supported new material design. HQS is a spin-off from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and provides software for quantum computers. The
A team of researchers from Barclays’ chief technology and innovation office, in collaboration with IBM, have published a paper describing a proof-of-concept quantum optimised application. The paper, Quantum algorithms for mixed binary optimization, published earlier in October,
Nu Quantum, the Cambridge-based quantum photonics company, raised a £650,000 pre-seed investment round led by Amadeus Capital Partners, with support from IQ Capital, Ahren Capital, Cambridge Enterprise and Martlet Capital, the investment arm of Marshall
Researchers at Australian Centre for Quantum Computation & Communication Technology open a new avenue to quantum computing with a breakthrough experiment: a large-scale quantum processor prototype made entirely of light. The research was published in Science today
Researchers at Technical University of Denmark describe how they have created a ‘carpet‘ of thousands of quantum-mechanically entangled light pulses at room temperature . The discovery has the potential to pave the way for more
Researchers at the Joint Quantum Institute (JQI) and the Joint Center for Quantum Information and Computer Science (QuICS) have stretched out multiple photons and turned three distinct pulses into overlapping quantum waves. The work, which
