The RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing (RQC) is an internationally unique research organization that develops and owns actual quantum computers based on different approaches, such as the ...

Instead of optimizing gate-based quantum computers, Atsushi Sakaguchi and his colleagues of the Optical Quantum Computing Research Team at the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing have been developing ...

Quantum computers are able to solve complex calculations that would take traditional computers thousands of years in just a few minutes. What if that analytical power is turned inwards towards the ...

Microsoft announced Wednesday that it has invented an entirely new kind of quantum computer. Its new quantum chip, Majorana 1, is a quantum processor analogous to transistors in classical computers’ ...

Researchers unveiled a new technique that validates quantum computer results—especially those from GBS devices—in minutes instead of millennia. Their findings expose unexpected errors in a landmark ...

A gold superconducting quantum computer hangs against a black background. Quantum computers, like the one shown here, could someday allow chemists to solve problems that classical computers can’t.

In 1981, American physicist and Nobel Laureate, Richard Feynman, gave a lecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) near Boston, in which he outlined a revolutionary idea. Feynman ...

Quantum computers have the potential to revolutionize computing by solving complex problems that stump even today's fastest machines. Scientists are exploring whether quantum computers could one day ...

Quantum computing is shaping up to be among the most transformative technologies of our era. While still in their infancy, these powerful machines are expected to help us solve many problems by ...

Over the past decade, quantum computing has grown into a billion-dollar industry. Everyone seems to be investing in it, from tech giants, such as IBM and Google, to the US military. But Ignacio Cirac ...
