Quantum Error Correction

Amazon announced that it has created its own quantum computing chip, joining Microsoft and Google in a push to take this potentially transformative...

Dubbed Ocelot, it's designed to correct errors with less hardware overhead.

Current quantum computers are prone to error. IBM's latest Heron machine uses software and hardware to get better results

U.K.-based startup Riverlane helped continue what has been a strong year for venture funding in the quantum computing industry.

The long-term vision for quantum computing is the ability to leverage millions of noise-free qubits to address selected problems that are hard to solve with classical computers. Application fields that may benefit from this technology include materials synthesis, pharmaceutical drug development, and cybersecurity, to name a few.

The company has managed to reduce errors

For the first time ever, our Quantum AI researchers have experimentally demonstrated it's possible to reduce errors by increasing the number of qubits.

Researchers demonstrate for the first time that using more qubits can lower error rate of quantum calculations.

Quantum computers have the potential to vastly exceed the capabilities of conventional computers for certain tasks. But there is still a long way to go before they can help to solve real-world problems. Many applications require quantum processors with millions of quantum bits. Today's prototypes merely come up with a few of these compute units.

If technologists can't perfect it, quantum computers will never be big

Photonic experiment shows the limits of recovering information about a quantum state

While playing with the IBM Q experience in some of my recent posts, we have seen that real qubits are subject to geometric restrictions – two-qubit gates cannot involve arbitrary qubits, but …

By turning to a task unachievable by classical computers, scientists pin down a quantum revolution timeline.
