As quantum computers continue to advance, many of today's encryption systems face the risk of becoming obsolete. A powerful ...

Just a few years ago, many researchers in quantum computing thought it would take several decades to develop machines that ...

The order outlines a widespread effort to plan for increased quantum innovation, private sector cooperation and international partnership in pursuit of a quantum computer for scientific applications ...

Quantum teleportation has finally leapt from pristine lab setups into the messy reality of the public internet. Instead of moving atoms like in science fiction, researchers have transmitted the ...

A breakthrough optical design allows quantum computers to read information in parallel, a key step toward building ...

Quantum computers struggle because their qubits are incredibly easy to disrupt, especially during calculations. A new ...

Quantum computers need extreme cold to work, but the very systems that keep them cold also create noise that can destroy fragile quantum information. Scientists in Sweden have now flipped that problem ...

The study shows that in quantum devices, reading a clock consumes far more energy than running it. This insight will help ...

A new theoretical study led by researchers at the University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory has identified the ...

Quantum computers hold great promise for exciting applications in the future, but for now they keep presenting physicists and ...

Quantum computing has great potential , but its main unit, the qubit, is beset by inherent stability problems. However, this new study might change that.
