A team from Australia have found a "quantum hack" - a way to modify qubit surface codes, improving quantum error correction by up to four hundred per cent.
Australian and Dutch engineers created a complete design for a quantum computer chip that can be manufactured using mostly standard industry processes.
Physicists have invented a microcircuit based on topological insulators, a new phase of matter awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize in Physics.
Physicists have unveiled a programmable five-qubit processing module that can be connected together to form a powerful quantum computer.
The first multi-qubit computer with protection against decoherence (noise that prevents the computer from functioning properly) has been developed by an international team of scientists.
By 2017, quantum physics will help reduce the energy consumption of our computers and cellular phones by up to a factor of 100. For research and industry, the power consumption of transistors is a key issue. The next revolution will likely come from tunnel-FET, a technology that takes advantage of a phenomenon referred to as "quantum tunneling."
Scientists have demonstrated a new technique that dramatically simplifies quantum circuits, bringing quantum computers closer to reality.
Quantum computing will create machines unbelievably faster and cleverer than anything ever made, using weird and wonderful physics. The latest...
