Making quantum computers fault-tolerant (and scaling effective error correction to enable this) is a key barrier to a new era of quantum supremacy. A new study ...
Quantum computing just got a significant boost thanks to researchers at the University of Osaka, who developed a much more efficient way to create "magic states" a key component for fault-tolerant ...
Quantum computers have performed the full slate of tricks needed for robust computation. And it all came down to a little magic. In a pair of papers submitted June 17 at arXiv.org, researchers ...
Researchers have demonstrated that the theoretically optimal scaling for magic state distillation—a critical bottleneck in fault-tolerant quantum computing—is achievable for qubits, improving on the ...
A hybrid magic system made up of spin qubits and photons (Credit: Ying-Lin Li) This property determines whether a quantum system can outperform even the fastest classical supercomputer. Until now, ...
Quantum locking looks like magic, but it’s real physics in action. This video breaks down how superconductors interact with magnetic fields, why objects can appear to float or lock in place, and ...
In a world-first, scientists used precisely controlled optical traps, known as "magic-wavelength optical tweezers," to create a highly stable environment that supports long-lasting entanglement, a key ...
