A qubit chip isn’t the only critical component that is needed in a superconducting quantum computer. Another important components is the device that can provide for ultra-low-noise readout of the qubits in order to measure […]
D-Wave Quantum Inc. was the first commercial company to enter the quantum computing market. The company was founded in 1999 and developed their first commercial product, a 128 qubit quantum annealing processor called the D-Wave […]
For the first time, physicists have captured direct images of ‘second sound,’ the movement of heat sloshing back and forth within a superfluid. The results will expand scientists’ understanding of heat flow in superconductors and […]
A new fusion of materials, each with special electrical properties, has all the components required for a unique type of superconductivity that could provide the basis for more robust quantum computing. The new combination of […]
Insider Brief Infleqtion unveiled its 5-year quantum computing roadmap, looking at commercial quantum solutions by the end of the decade. The company also announced a program of substantial investments in both hardware and software dedicated […]
Insider Brief Venture capital is currently focused on turning a quick buck, not long-term investments, according to MIT Sloan Management Review columnists. In the past VCs funded cutting-edge, but risky companies and technologies. The piece […]
Qubits are the building block for quantum technology, and finding or building qubits that are stable and easily manipulated is one of the central goals of quantum technology research. Scientists have found that an atom […]
About 70 years ago, an engineer at IBM named Hans Peter Luhn quietly changed the course of computer science. Luhn already held several patents, including one for a device that could measure a cloth’s thread […]
Since early demonstrations of femtosecond laser as a three-dimensional (3D) processing tool, microdevices with exciting optical, electronic, mechanical, and magnetic functions have been manufactured, by which novel concepts from 3D quantum photonic integrated circuits to […]
In quantum sensing, atomic-scale quantum systems are used to measure electromagnetic fields, as well as properties like rotation, acceleration, and distance, far more precisely than classical sensors can. The technology could enable devices that image […]
