Quantum computers of the future may be closer to reality thanks to new research from Caltech and Oratomic, a Caltech-linked start-up company. Theorists and experimentalists teamed up to develop a new approach for reducing the errors that riddle today's rudimentary quantum computers.
An international team of scientists proved the never-before-seen molecule's exotic nature using a quantum computer, potentially ushering in new scientific opportunities.
After 30 months of fast-paced innovation in quantum algorithms, six research groups are hoping to hit paydirt. But there can be only one big winner—if there is a winner at all.
French quantum computing startup Alice & Bob has been awarded $3.9 million by the US Department of Energy to design rare-earth-free magnets. The funding has been granted as part of the DOE’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) Quantum Computing for Computational Chemistry (QC 3) program.
Silicon is ubiquitous in modern electronics, and now it is becoming increasingly useful in quantum computing. In particular, silicon's compatibility with existing chip technology and its long coherence times in silicon-based spin qubits make it a promising material for scalable quantum computing.
