Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, along with other scientists, are taking small steps to create materials that could enable quantum leaps in computing speed, security in communications and ...

What do children’s building blocks and quantum computing have in common? The answer is modularity. It is difficult for scientists to build quantum computers monolithically – that is, as a single large ...

Scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have shown that a type of qubit whose architecture is more amenable to mass production can perform comparably to ...

A new Nature critique questions Microsoft’s quantum computing research, raising doubts about a key study behind its goal of ...

Like their conventional counterparts, quantum computers can also break down. They can sometimes lose the atoms they manipulate to function, which can stop calculations dead in their tracks. But ...
