Few quantum effects are as mind-tripping as the quantum eraser, in which quantum signatures can appear or disappear depending on the future actions of an experimenter. Previous quantum eraser experiments have used photons, but a
IQM Finland Oy (IQM), a European startup which makes hardware for quantum computers, has raised a €15M equity investment round from the EIC Accelerator program for the development of quantum computers. This is in addition to
A team of NASA scientists have observed Bose-Einstein condensates, aka the fifth state of matter, in space, aboard the International Space Station, for the first time. Albert Einstein and Indian mathematician Satyendra Nath Bose predicted
Researchers at University of Stuttgart has just published an interesting paper “The Bitter Truth About Quantum Algorithms in the NISQ Era“. Implementing a quantum algorithm on a NISQ device has several challenges that arise from
Engineers from JPMorgan have found a method to improve Grover’s algorithm. Their innovation leads to a performance improvement because it removes, “X gates from the inversion-by-the-mean step in the standard Grover iterate that is used
Researchers of Polish Beit Project have presented a novel quantum algorithm for solving the unstructured search problem with one marked element. Their algorithm allows generating quantum circuits that use asymptotically fewer additional quantum gates than
Satellite QKD-based secure communications is a hot topic as we wrote in a previous article. China has definitely a leadership in this domain and shows new progress and expertise. Measurement-Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution (MDI-QKD), based
German chancellor Angela Merkel announced a 2 Billion innovation program for quantum technology including the investment in two quantum computers. “The next fundamental digital leap in technology through quantum technologies is now beginning. Since other countries are
Researchers at Atos Quantum Lab, Ecole Polytechnique and Argonne National Laboratory demonstrated a recently introduced method that breaks a quantum circuit into smaller sub-circuits or fragments, and thus makes it possible to run circuits that
Be ready to add a new acronym to your quantum taxonomy: QCD aka Quantum Computer-aided Design. Researchers at Intel, MIT and University of Toronto, have addressed the question of how one can design and test
