This article is part of a package on the future of quantum computing. Read about the most promising applications of these ...

Quantum computing could lead to revolutions in cryptography, materials design and telecommunications. But fulfilling those ...

Jacob Benestad in front of an experimental setup in the laboratory at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen. This setup is similar to the one used during the group's experiments at the ...

Quantum hardware has finally crossed a psychological threshold: it is no longer a science project in search of a purpose, it is a working tool that large companies and governments are starting to use.

Work has begun on the state’s new multibillion-dollar quantum computing campus on Chicago’s South Side. The lakefront site for the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park was for decades U.S. Steel ...

Quantum circuits are supposed to gain power as they grow longer, but noise changes the picture. A new study finds that earlier steps in these circuits gradually lose their impact, with only the final ...

Quantum computing marks a major change in how we process information. It goes beyond the binary limits of classical "bits," which exist only as 0 or 1. Instead, it uses "qubits" that can exist in ...

Governments and tech companies continue to pour money into quantum technology in the hopes of building a supercomputer that can work at speeds we can't yet fathom to solve big problems. Imagine a ...
