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 ...

A way to greatly enhance the efficiency of a method for correcting errors in quantum computers has been realized by theoretical physicists at RIKEN. This advance could help to develop larger, more ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Paul-Smith Goodson is an analyst covering quantum computing and AI. Microsoft and Quantinuum quantum computing researchers just ...

In today’s announcement, they’ve figured out how to compensate for six types of errors, by adding an additional mode to the qubit. This makes the qubit more resilient and accurate, and opens the path ...
