‘Quantum Echoes’ algorithm

Search engine outfit Google says its quantum computer has achieved the first verifiable quantum advantage, running a new algorithm 13,000 times faster than one of the world’s top supercomputers.

Two potentially dead and alive cats

IBM and AMD say they’re going to “build the future of computing” by welding quantum hardware to high-performance silicon, creating hybrid systems to crack problems too gnarly for either approach.

Nevermind quantum cats, this one is powered by an OQTOPUS 

Japan has flicked the switch on its first quantum computer built entirely from bits designed and manufactured within the country’s borders.

Sydney team cracks GKP code using harmonic motion in a trapped ion

Quantum researchers at the University of Sydney Nano Institute have emerged from their smoke filled labs having built a working entangling logic gate using just one atom and a fiendishly complicated error-correcting code known as the Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) scheme.

Everyone wants to build the first machine that does something useful

The long-held fantasy of quantum computing is now looking more like a knuckle-busting engineering war.

Aims its new photonics toy beyond cars

Indie Semiconductor has taken the wraps off a super quiet laser module.

Quantum light sources and electronics finally share the same silicon 

A team of boffins from Boston University, UC Berkeley and Northwestern University have emerged from their smoke filled labs with the world’s first chip that combines quantum light sources and control electronics on a single slab of silicon.

Sydney boffins crack cryogenic control systems

A team of researchers from the University of Sydney and Emergence Quantum have emerged from their smoke filled labs with a fair dinkum computer chip powered by quantum cats who can play Crysis.

Biggish Blue bets big on fault-tolerant qubits

Biggish Blue has swaggered into the quantum saloon waving a roadmap it says will make AI look like a warm-up act.

Boffins eye quantum computer boost from chromium sandwich

Boffins have emerged from their smoke filled labs having come up with a more viable way to do quantum computing and sensing, by creating much longer-lasting quantum states.
