2022/08/10

It’s hard to improve the purity of an atom. Identical and easy to find, atoms such as those in ytterbium can make flawless qubits. We only need to be able to trap and control them. Can using trapped ions as qubits therefore yield the most powerful quantum computers on the planet? How scalable is this approach on the road to quantum advantage?

Quantum Interconnect with Entangled Networks

The Post-Quantum World ·

2022/07/13

Things can get tricky when you try to cram too many qubits onto one quantum processor. Is the best way to build a machine with thousands of qubits actually to connect, or “interconnect,” many smaller processors together? And can this concept be extended to interconnect several large-scale machines across vast distances?

2022/06/29

In late 2020, physicists in China generated controversy by claiming quantum advantage with a photonic quantum computing system that’s technically not programmable. Other companies have been experimenting with photonic systems, including QuiX Quantum. How do these machines work? Should scientists redefine what quantum advantage means, focusing on practical, usable problems a machine is solving?

Getting to fault-tolerant quantum computing requires improving qubit quality. The dream of engineers is the “four nines,” or 99.99 percent fidelity. Quantinuum, well known for its H1 trapped-ion system, has found a way to achieve this elusive goal by switching from ytterbium to barium-137.

Monte Carlo simulations have been around for quite a while in classical computing. They help companies model potential outcomes of a broad range of “what if” scenarios. Since 2015, the quantum computing industry has believed Monte Carlo simulations would be one of the best use cases to show quantum advantage. QC Ware was able to prove the feasibility of this approach recently, working with Goldman Sachs. And now they want to share that field-tested approach, along with other use cases, in a powerful

D-Wave has been making quantum computers for over a decade, and their annealers excel at optimization. If you look at the use cases the company has been helping customers with, it almost feels like quantum advantage is here. If you’re saving time or money, or both, how can you complain? And even after the other type of quantum computers, universal-gate-based systems, become fault tolerant, annealers will likely be around forever due to how powerful they are at specific use cases (sort of like how
