Scientists have achieved a breakthrough by "distilling" light to eliminate the noise that prevents photonic quantum computers ...

In December 2024, a team at Google published a result in Nature that physicists had been chasing for nearly three decades: a ...

There are currently about 80 companies across the world manufacturing quantum computing hardware. Because I report on quantum computing, I have had a chance to watch it grow as an industry from up ...

The collaboration of TU Wien with research groups in China has resulted in a crucial building block for a new kind of quantum computer: The realization of a novel type of quantum logic gate makes it ...

Quantum computers are shifting from lab curiosities into real machines that can already outperform classical systems on narrow tasks, and the stakes are no longer theoretical. The technology promises ...

IonQ Inc. today detailed the terms of a transaction that will see it receive $2 billion in funding from investment firm Heights Capital. The quantum computer maker plans to raise about three quarters ...

Quantum computers can outperform even the best classical supercomputers thanks to quantum entanglement and superposition, but even they can’t solve some problems. A new preprint study shows how ...

Software firm Horizon Quantum claimed it is the first private company to deploy a commercial quantum computer in Singapore. The deployment also makes it the first quantum software company to deploy ...

The amount of quantum computing power needed to crack a common data encryption technique has been reduced tenfold. This makes the encryption method even more vulnerable to quantum computers, which may ...

Google published a paper on March 31 that states that Bitcoin's cryptography could be impacted by quantum computing sooner than previously stated.

As artificial intelligence fuels a surge in convincing deepfakes and quantum computing advances toward real-world use, researchers have developed a quantum-safe encryption system designed to protect ...
