'Quantum hard drives' closer to reality after scientists resolve 10-year-old problem
Scientists in Australia say they've cracked a key hurdle facing the the development of scalable quantum computers and practical quantum data storage.
Monster 4,400-qubit quantum processor is '25,000 times faster' than its predecessor
D-Wave says its new Advantage2 processor, which is designed for complex applications in AI, optimization and data science, is faster and more accurate than its existing 5,000-qubit system.
IBM's newest 156-qubit quantum chip can run 50 times faster than its predecessor — equipping it for scientific research
When combined with Qiskit software tools, the 156-qubit R2 Heron quantum processor can perform 5,000 two-qubit gate operations — double the previous best — meaning it's ready for complex quantum computations, IBM scientists say.
New 'gold-plated' superconductor could be the foundation for massively scaled-up quantum computers in the future
New superconducting material paves the way for the next stage in quantum computing
Will we ever have quantum laptops?
Quantum computers are here. But could we ever build a quantum laptop?
Why do we need quantum computers and what will they be used for?
Quantum computers will one day outpace the fastest supercomputers on the planet, but what will they be used to accomplish?
'Quantum CD' could hold up to 1,000 times more data than today's optical discs
The new study models how light spreads at the nanometer scale to understand how energy moves between rare earth emitters and the quantum defects within a solid material.
Scientists have built the smallest quantum computer in the world
The smallest machine of its kind in the world uses a single photon as its qubit and it can perform calculations without needing the cumbersome equipment to cool it down to near absolute zero.
Chinese scientists claim they broke RSA encryption with a quantum computer — but there's a catch
Researchers claim to have broken RSA encryption using a quantum computer, but what really happened?
Google's Sycamore quantum computer chip can now outperform the fastest supercomputers, new study suggests
Experiments on Google's 67-qubit Sycamore processor showed operations entering a new "weak noise phase" in which calculations were complex enough to outperform supercomputers, based on benchmark testing.
