Insider Brief China has established a quantum key distribution link between Beijing and South Africa, marking its first ultra-secure communication connection in the southern hemisphere. The experiment used China’s quantum communication satellites, advancing efforts to […]
SEEQC, a company specializing in digital chip-based quantum computing, has installed its cross-qubit scaling platform at the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) in Oxfordshire. The platform, powered by SEEQC’s Single Flux Quantum (SFQ) architecture, is designed to develop and test scalable […]
ORCA Computing has announced the shipment of its PT-2 photonic quantum system to the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) in the UK. Building on the success of its predecessor, the PT-1, the PT-2 offers 40 qumodes at industry-relevant clock cycles, housed in a […]
Lockheed Martin, in collaboration with Q-CTRL and AOSense, has been awarded a contract by the U.S. Department of Defense’s Innovation Unit (DIU) to prototype a quantum-enabled Inertial Navigation System (INS). The system, called QuINS, uses quantum sensing technology to provide precise navigation […]
Infleqtion has been awarded $6.2 million by the U.S. Department of Energy’s ARPA-E to develop quantum computing solutions for energy grid optimization. The funding supports the ENCODE project, a collaboration with Argonne National Laboratory, EPRI, and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). […]
Researchers have advanced a decades-old challenge in the field of organic semiconductors, opening new possibilities for the future of electronics. The researchers have created an organic semiconductor that forces electrons to move in a spiral […]
Physics has a problem—their key models of quantum theory and the theory of relativity do not fit together. Now, Dr. Wolfgang Wieland from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) is developing an approach that reconciles the two theories […]
Insider Brief: South Korea launches a ₩1 trillion Science and Technology Innovation Fund, with a dedicated account allocating ₩20 billion annually for quantum startups over four years. The government plans to train 2,500 quantum researchers […]
Insider Brief D-Wave reported record bookings of $23.9 million in 2024, up 128% from the prior year, but revenue remained flat at $8.8 million, and net loss widened to $143.9 million. The company highlighted a […]
Using the Multi-frequency High Field Electron Spin Resonance Spectrometer at the Steady-State High Magnetic Field Facility (SHMFF), researchers observed the first-ever Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) of a two-magnon bound state in a magnetic material. The facility […]
