Qubits are the fundamental building blocks of quantum computers — and, when fitted into these machines — rely on the weird laws of quantum mechanics to process calculations in parallel.

Today’s quantum computers are fundamentally impractical. But with a more resilient qubit, scientists believe they can unlock the technology’s extraordinary potential. Soon, they hope to prove it.

At first glance, biology and quantum technology seem incompatible. Living systems operate in warm, noisy environments full of ...

Fig. 1: Modeling qubits in a realistic way involves large-scale atomistic models with possibly amorphous materials, disorder, ...

Majorana 1, Microsoft’s groundbreaking chip, is poised to transform the landscape of quantum computing by harnessing the ...

Australian researchers have managed to create a CNOT quantum logic gate, the basic building block of a quantum computer, by modifying a standard silicon transistor.

As exciting as it may be to hear about a breakthrough 127-qubit quantum computer or promises of 1,000 qubits by 2023, the reality is that quantum computing is still not a mainstream computing ...

The next evolution of artificial intelligence technology is upon us. It will be driven by a whole new kind of hardware.

Japan's first entirely homegrown quantum computer uses superconducting qubits and components made entirely domestically.
