The demonstrator being built in this project delivers a clear path toward scalable and fault-tolerant quantum computers. The joint project integrates IQM’s superconducting quantum processor, Zurich ...

Today’s quantum computing hardware is severely limited in what it can do by errors that are difficult to avoid. There can be problems with everything from setting the initial state of a qubit to ...

There’s a strong consensus that tackling most useful problems with a quantum computer will require that the computer be capable of error correction. There is ...

Surface code: illustration of how error correction works for bit and phase flips. The measure qubits on light blue backgrounds check for phase flip errors while the ...

Quantum computing is still in its infancy, easily beaten by traditional computers. One of the biggest challenges? The fact that quantum bits — qubits — are much more fragile than the bits in silicon ...

Researchers at Google Quantum AI and collaborators have developed a quantum processor with error rates that get progressively smaller as the number of quantum bits ...

Unlike binary bits of information in ordinary computers, “qubits” consist of quantum particles that have some probability of being in each of two states, designated |0 and |1 , at the same time. When ...

Today, IQM Quantum Computers and Zurich Instruments announce a joint project to build and operate a real-time quantum error correction (QEC) demonstrator, enabled by ...

As enterprises and public institutions worldwide move from quantum exploration to long-term deployment, the challenge has evolved beyond simply accessing quantum hardware. The focus is now on reliably ...
