Researchers in Switzerland have created a mechanical qubit using an acoustic wave resonator, marking a significant step forward in quantum acoustodynamics. The qubit is not good enough for quantum ...

A Canadian quantum computing start-up claims its new qubit will enable much smaller and cheaper error-free quantum computers. But getting there will be a steep challenge. To correct its own errors ...

Each qubit (gray square) involves a left and right resonance chamber (blue dots) that a photon can move between. Each of the qubits has connections that allow entanglement with its nearest neighbors.

A team of physicists at ETH Zürich has built the first-ever working mechanical qubit. In their paper published in the journal Science, the group describes their novel idea for creating such a ...

However, creating a single logical qubit traditionally requires dozens or even hundreds of physical qubits, significantly increasing the size, complexity and energy cost of a quantum computer.

A new paper gives fellow quantum physicists a tool to help explore the geometry of the universe. They say one qubit’s behavior, regardless of its starting position, forms a predictable geometric ...

Scientists are trying to master the basic computing element known as a qubit to make quantum computers more powerful than electronic machines ...

A quantum bit, otherwise known as a qubit, is the basic unit of data in quantum computing. Like a binary bit in classical computers, as it can store information, but behaves very differently ...

Microsoft’s new “topological qubit” is not based on a solid, liquid or gas. It is another phase of matter that many experts did not think was possible.

Microsoft is claiming to have created a topological qubit—something engineers have been trying to achieve for years.

Researchers at Yale have extended the lifetime of a qubit by 2.3 times, a major step in improving and proving the viability of quantum computers.

Technology Qubit breakthrough could make it easier to build quantum computers Quantum computers that correct their own errors usually require hundreds of thousands of qubits.
