Physicists develop world’s best qubits
A team of researchers at UCLA has set a new record for preparing and measuring the quantum bits, or qubits, inside of a quantum computer without error. The techniques they have developed make it easier
Broken time-reversal symmetry in iron-based superconductors
Physicists at TU Dresden have discovered spontaneous static magnetic fields with broken time-reversal symmetry in a class of iron-based superconductors. This exceptional property calls for new theoretical models and may become important in quantum computing.
Quantum Hall effect in 3-D topological materials
Researchers have found surprising evidence that the quantum Hall effect exists in topological superconductors that could be used to build fault-tolerant quantum computers. The quantum Hall effect was first measured in two-dimensional materials. The study
Efficient detection of microwave photons
Researchers at the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) demonstrate a new microwave-photon detection method that improves on existing techniques by yielding significantly fewer false positive detections. High-performance single-photon detectors work by transforming the
Quantum Computing at room temperature
US Army researchers became the first to demonstrate the feasibility of a quantum logic gate comprised of photonic circuits and optical crystals. Photonic circuits that incorporate nonlinear optical crystals have presently emerged as the sole
Australia’s National Science Agency launches Quantum Technology Roadmap
The Australian Government and its National Science Agency (CSIRO) has just release their quantum technologies roadmap to 2040. The “Growing Australia’s Quantum Technology Industry” report identifies actions that will see Australia’s world class research and quantum start-ups support
‘Hot and messy’ entanglement of 15 trillion atoms
When dealing with entanglement, current quantum technologies isolate the systems they work with and operate at temperatures close to absolute zero. In a recent experiment, the ICFO team, in contrast, heated a collection of atoms
Quantum Motion Technologies gets £8.0 million funding
Quantum Motion Technologies has just announced it has completed a £8.0 million Series A round of investment. The company, a UK-based quantum computing company based at UCL and Oxford University, develops a fault tolerant quantum
ID Quantique and SK Telecom announce the world’s first 5G smartphone with QRNG
ID Quantique (IDQ), the Swiss quantum-safe security solutions company, announced that its newest Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) chip has been integrated in the ‘Galaxy A Quantum’, a custom edition of the Samsung Galaxy A71
Atos delivers Quantum Learning Simulator to Japan
Atos announced that it has sold its Atos Quantum Learning Machine (QLM), the world’s highest-performing commercially available quantum simulator, through its APAC distributor Intelligent Wave Inc. (IWI), in Japan. This is the first QLM that Atos
