Control electrodes are used to load, remove and move ions. This architecture does not scale beyond 50-100 qubits because of gate implementation challenges in long ion chains.](https://swissquantumhub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Trapped-Ion-technology-Princeton.png)
Researchers at Princeton University and Duke University collaborated to develop methods to design the next generation of quantum computers. Their study focused on QC systems built using Trapped-Ions (TI) technology, which is one of the
Swiss Zurich Instruments joins a new partner network, Chicago Quantum Exchange (CQE), which is a Chicago-based research hub (one of the largest QT research hubs in the USA) with the goal of advancing academic and industrial
In a world’s first, researchers at the Kastler Brossel Laboratory in Paris and the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have performed a pioneering experiment demonstrating “hybrid” quantum networking. The approach, which unites
Qblox, a spinoff of the Delft-based quantum technology institute Qutech has set out to create a new system to control the qubits in a quantum computer. The startup is paving the way for building quantum
Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have developed a novel instrument that can make three kinds of atom-scale measurements simultaneously. Together, these measurements can uncover new knowledge about a wide range
A team from University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) and Origin Quantum Computing Company Limited, reported an improvement of spin lifetime (relaxation time) by over two orders of magnitude in silicon Quantum Dots (QDs)
A new circuit-wiring scheme developed over the last three years by RIKEN’s Superconducting Quantum Electronics Research Team, in collaboration with other institutes, opens the door to scaling up to 100 or more qubits within the
A team led by researchers at MIT LIGO Laboratory has measured the effects of quantum fluctuations on objects at the human scale. The researchers reported observing that quantum fluctuations, tiny as they may be, can nonetheless “kick”
Diamond based quantum technology is a fast emerging field with both scientific and technological importance. With the growing knowledge and experience concerning diamond based quantum systems comes an increased demand for performance. Quantum optimal control
Researchers from University of Basel, Bochum, and Copenhagen have gained new insights into the energy states of Quantum Dots (QD). The scientists confirmed certain energy transitions in QDs that had previously only been predicted theoretically:
