Researchers at Université de Montpellier and CNRS, University Leipzig and other universities in Europe have recently successfully isolated single, optically active artificial atoms in silicon for the first time. Given its potential for integration and scalability,
Researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, in collaboration with the French CEA-Leti, have found industrially-manufactured transistor wafers to be suitable as a qubit platform capable of moving to the second dimension, a
Researchers at California Institute of Technology have achieved conditional quantum teleportation of time-bin qubits at the telecommunication wavelength of 1536.5 nm. They measured teleportation fidelities of ≥ 90% that are consistent with an analytical model
Wonderful tribute to Claude Shannon by David Tse, in Quanta Magazine. He (Shannon) never won a Nobel Prize, and he wasn’t a celebrity like Albert Einstein or Richard Feynman, either before or after his death
A team of researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory and Google has reviewed the state of the art of Variational Quantum Algorithms (VQAs). Applications such as simulating large quantum systems or solving large-scale linear algebra
Despite the fundamental importance of quantum entanglement in many-body systems, our understanding is mostly limited to bipartite situations. Indeed, even defining appropriate notions of multipartite entanglement is a significant challenge for general quantum systems. This
A team of scientists at Freie Universität Berlin has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) method for calculating the ground state of the Schrödinger equation in quantum chemistry. Up to now, it has been impossible to
In the effort to develop disruptive quantum technologies, germanium is emerging as a versatile material to realize devices capable of encoding, processing and transmitting quantum information. These devices leverage the special properties of holes in
A technique created by researchers at University of Pittsburgh enables them to “sketch” patterns of electrons into a programmable quantum material (Lanthanum Aluminate/Strontium Titanate or “LAO/STO”). Using this approach, they can create quantum devices and
Paulina Mazurek, CEO of Polish quantum startup BEIT, is the first nominee of the ‘Quantum Personality of the Year 2020‘ and she definitely deserves that honour. First, because she has co-founded her company in 2016, when a
