In a Caltech lab, a computer screen showed thousands of tiny points of light—each one a single atom, held in place by laser ...

Another major quantum computing record has been broken, and by a considerable margin: physicists have now built an array ...

One often-repeated example illustrates the mind-boggling potential of quantum computing: A machine with 300 quantum bits could simultaneously store more information than the number of particles in the ...

Assigning ends of the system the standard experimental nicknames of Alice and Bob, the task required Alice to create a ...

Diraq has shown that its silicon-based quantum chips can maintain world-class accuracy even when mass-produced in ...

Fluorescent proteins can be turned into qubits within cells and could give us a deeper understanding of biology at the ...

Caltech scientists have built a record-breaking array of 6,100 neutral-atom qubits, a critical step toward powerful ...

Made out of a fluorescent protein, the qubit is just 3 nanometers in diameter, scientists report August 20 in Nature. By hitting the protein with laser light, tweaking it with microwaves and observing ...

A quantum computer has demonstrated that it can solve a problem more efficiently than a conventional computer. This ...

Japanese scientists develop scalable quantum LDPC error correction codes approaching the theoretical hashing bound.

A qubit encoded in a fluorescent protein could act as a sensor to measure quantum properties inside living systems ...
