Researchers have unveiled a new quantum material that could make quantum computers much more stable by using magnetism to protect delicate qubits from environmental disturbances. Unlike traditional ...

The allure of quantum computers is, at its heart, quite simple: by leveraging counterintuitive quantum effects, they could perform computational feats utterly impossible for any classical computer.

IonQ, Inc. is the most popular public quantum stock, but at today’s valuation, it’s more speculation than investment. Learn ...

Quantum computing is still in its early stages of development, but researchers have extensively explored its potential uses.

Imagine the tiniest game of checkers in the world—one played by using lasers to precisely shuffle around ions across a very small grid. That’s the idea behind a recent study published in the journal ...

A collaborative effort from researchers in Brazil, the Czech Republic, and France, led by researchers at the Norwegian Institute of Science and Technology (NTNU), has found clay to be a viable ...

After many years of work, Microsoft has unveiled its first quantum hardware, the Majorana 1 processor. Let’s grok its topoconductor and tetron-based qubits. There’s a race going on. Not the one to ...

One day soon, at a research lab near Santa Barbara or Seattle or a secret facility in the Chinese mountains, it will begin: the sudden unlocking of the world’s secrets. Your secrets. Cybersecurity ...

In early December, Google introduced a quantum computing chip, Willow, that engineers used to solve the hardest benchmark in the field. "Willow's performance on this benchmark is astonishing: It ...
