By using controlled microwave noise, researchers created a quantum refrigerator capable of operating as a cooler, heat engine, or amplifier. This approach offers a new way to manage heat directly ...

Scientists have developed a new way to read the hidden states of Majorana qubits, which store information in paired quantum ...

Researchers at QuTech in Delft, The Netherlands, have developed a new chip architecture that could make it easier to test and ...

“Our demonstration was on a two-qubit system and using a particular type of defect”, says Tim Taminiau who supervised the research. “A key challenge is to maintain and further improve the gate quality ...

Quantum computers are alternative computing devices that process information, leveraging quantum mechanical effects, such as ...

Quantum computers go beyond the binary. The first desktop computer was invented in the 1960s. But computing technology has been around for centuries, says Irfan Siddiqi, director of the Quantum ...

The heart of any computer, its central processing unit, is built using semiconductor technology, which is capable of putting billions of transistors onto a single chip. Now, researchers have shown ...

Over the last few years, the big question in quantum computing has shifted from "can we get this to work?" to "can we get this to scale?" It's no longer news when an algorithm is run on a small ...
