by Doug Finke We are starting to hear more and more press releases that claim “Quantum Advantage”. It is great to hear that researchers are making progress in successfully completing more and more complex calculations […]
Quantum technologies demand perfection: one photon at a time, every time, all with the same energy. Even tiny deviations in the number or energy of photons can derail devices, threatening the performance of quantum computers […]
Harnessing quantum states that avoid thermalization enables energy harvesters to surpass traditional thermodynamic limits such as Carnot efficiency, report researchers from Japan. The team developed a new approach using a non-thermal Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid to convert […]
Silicides—alloys of silicon and metals long used in microelectronics—are now being explored again for quantum hardware. But their use faces a critical challenge: achieving phase purity, since some silicide phases are superconducting while others are […]

Here’s a test for infants: Show them a glass of water on a desk. Hide it behind a wooden board. Now move the board toward the glass. If the board keeps going past the glass, […]
Atlantic Quantum has announced it will be joining up with Google Quantum AI to accelerate the team’s progress in creating fault tolerant quantum computers. It is not yet known right now what is exactly meant […]
A team of scientists from the University of Chicago, the University of California Berkeley, Argonne National Laboratory, and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has developed molecular qubits that bridge the gap between light and magnetism—and operate […]
A pedagogical review on the breakdown of the Lindblad equation: when it can be used, when not, with simple and accessible examples for an undergraduate audience. Article web page: Is Lindblad for me? Click to […]
