Though still in its early stages, quantum computing is predicted to have the ability to solve problems that are currently too ...

For years quantum technology seemed exciting in theory but not much good in practice. Now the ability to combine qubits—bits ...

A new fault-tolerant architecture using 448 atomic qubits suppresses errors past the critical point needed for scaling.

Quantum computers have the potential to solve certain calculations exponentially faster than a classic computer could, but more research is desperately needed to make their practical use a reality.

When quantum computers become commonplace, current cryptographic systems will become obsolete. Scientists are racing to get ...

A study led by the University of Oxford has identified a surprising source of entropy in quantum timekeeping—the act of measurement itself. In a study published in Physical Review Letters, scientists ...
