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 ...

Scientists have uploaded a viral genome to a quantum computer, marking an important step for the future of quantum-enabled ...

A device with more than 6000 quantum bits, or qubits, has smashed a previously-held record and is the first step towards building the largest quantum computer yet. Each of these is a neutral caesium ...

The promise of quantum computing has been building up year after year, and yet still seems as far away from practical reality as it has ever been. The good news is that there are finally end goals in ...

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 computing, once only a theoretical possibility, promises to deliver faster, more energy-efficient computers—but only ...

Quantum computers have the potential to transform science, accelerating breakthroughs in drug development, cosmology, materials science, nuclear physics, and more.

Quantum computing has long felt like a perpetual promise — a mysteriously powerful technology that’s always “about 10 years away.” If you tuned it out, you weren’t alone. But something has shifted ...

In a major step toward practical quantum computers, Princeton engineers have built a superconducting qubit that lasts three times longer than today’s best versions. “The real challenge, the thing that ...
