Today’s quantum computing hardware is severely limited in what it can do by errors that are difficult to avoid. There can be problems with everything from setting the initial state of a qubit to ...

"Our quantum error-correcting code has a greater than 1/2 code rate, targeting hundreds of thousands of logical qubits," explains Kasai. "Moreover, its decoding complexity is proportional to the ...

On Tuesday, Microsoft made a series of announcements related to its Azure Quantum Cloud service. Among them was a demonstration of logical operations using the largest number of error-corrected qubits ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Paul-Smith Goodson is an analyst covering quantum computing and AI. Microsoft and Quantinuum quantum computing researchers just ...

Nvidia and Infleqtion have announced new breakthrough. Infleqtion, a world leader in neutral atom quantum computing, used the NVIDIA CUDA-Q platform to first simulate, and then orchestrate the ...

Surface code: illustration of how error correction works for bit and phase flips. The measure qubits on light blue backgrounds check for phase flip errors while the ...

Researchers at Google Quantum AI and collaborators have developed a quantum processor with error rates that get progressively smaller as the number of quantum bits ...

Quantum computing is still in its infancy, easily beaten by traditional computers. One of the biggest challenges? The fact that quantum bits — qubits — are much more fragile than the bits in silicon ...

For the first time, a quantum computer has improved its results by repeatedly fixing its own mistakes midcalculation with a technique called quantum error correction ...
