At the heart of today’s computing future lies a new kind of chip—one that could make quantum computing practical, powerful, and scalable. Scientists have been chasing this dream for decades, but one ...

Quantum computers can outpace classical computers, but so far this ‘quantum advantage’ has been shown only for certain algorithms, and with tens or hundreds of quantum bits (qubits) 1 – 3. To realize ...

Physicists at the University of Cologne have taken an important step forward in the pursuit of topological quantum computing by demonstrating the first-ever observation of Crossed Andreev Reflection ...

This year started with a major controversy surrounding quantum computing (QC). NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang’s statement at CES 2025 that “very useful” QC is still 20 years away caused a crash in quantum ...

Quantum computing is still in its infancy, easily beaten by traditional computers. One of the biggest challenges? The fact that quantum bits — qubits — are much more fragile than the bits in silicon ...

For quantum computers to go from research curiosities to practically useful devices, researchers need to get their errors under control. New research from Microsoft and Quantinuum has now taken a ...

IBM is announcing today that it has made major advances toward creating a practical, full-scale quantum computer, a fabled, theoretical machine that relies on the tiniest atomic properties to compute ...
