The test bed will start being set up in the DistriQ Quantum Innovation Zone in Sherbrooke in October 2023, followed by Montreal and Quebec City in early 2024. It is being managed by Numana, a non-profit organization that will be responsible for the […]
By Carolyn Mathas SCALINQ and Atlantic Quantum are partnering to accelerate qubit control, characterization, and measurements on state-of-the-art cryogenic hardware. Using a collaborative R&D and technology development approach, each company brings solid experience that, when […]
Researchers have developed a system that uses atomic vacancies in silicon carbide to measure the stability and quality of acoustic resonators. What’s more, these vacancies could also be used for acoustically-controlled quantum information processing, providing […]
The scale of quantum computers is growing quickly. In 2022, IBM took the top spot with its 433-qubit Osprey chip. Yesterday, Atom Computing announced they’ve one-upped IBM with a 1,180-qubit neutral atom quantum computer. The […]
Insider Brief SCALINQ and Atlantic Quantum partnership aims to accelerate qubit control, characterization and measurements with cryogenic hardware. The combined teams say that the partnership can share knowledge to develop solutions at an even faster […]
Modern physics can explain everything from the spin of the tiniest particle to the behavior of entire galaxy clusters. But it can’t explain life. There’s simply no formula to explain the difference between a living […]
Quantum 7, 1157 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-10-25-1157 When two particles interact primarily through gravity and follow the laws of quantum mechanics, the generation of entanglement is considered a hallmark of the quantum nature of the gravitational interaction. […]
Quantum 7, 1156 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-10-25-1156 In this paper, I present a way to compile the surface code into two-body parity measurements (“pair measurements”), where the pair measurements run along the edges of a Cairo pentagonal […]
Luca Giomi still remembers the time when, as a young graduate student, he watched two videos of droplets streaming from an inkjet printer. The videos were practically identical — except one wasn’t a video at […]
