If you’ve ever been sightseeing in Prague, Czech Republic, you've likely stood in the square outside the Old Town Hall in awe of the Atomic Clock first used in 1410 and still in operation. A quantum clock is also an atomic clock that…

The American National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has selected security algorithms CRYSTALS-KYBER, CRYSTALS-Dilithium, and SPHINCS+ as new standards for post-quantum cryptography. The underlying technology must ensure that…

Researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, dramatically improved the coherence time of a previously developed quantum membrane. The membrane can store sensitive quantum information for further processing in a quantum…

MIT developed a programming language to describe and verify which pieces of data are entangled, preventing bugs in a quantum program. When qubits are entangled, action on one affects the other, also changing its value—even at a distance.…

Universities Space Research Association (USRA) announced the beginning of operations for phase-2 of DARPA's Optimization with Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum devices (ONISQ) program. Phase 1 launched in 2020, and USRA was selected to lead…

Quantum computer construction is exceptionally costly. However, a new technique from the University of Melbourne-led team creates large-scale patterns of counted atoms. They control the atoms so that quantum states can be manipulated,…

A newly designed microwave source could replace existing bulky control systems that hinder the scalability of quantum computers. This breakthrough is the result of a recently developed circuit that produces the high-quality microwave…

It was just a matter of time before private quantum-computing companies began to hit the public markets. Rigetti & Co., Inc. entered into a definitive merger agreement with Supernova Partners Acquisition Company II, Ltd. The transaction…

Artificial intelligence and quantum computing are making rapid progress. The fusion of AI and quantum physics is spawning a new field--quantum AI. Before it can be harnessed, however, there’s a small problem of the vulnerability of quantum…

Estimates are that the quantum computing market will reach $65 billion by 2030. A research team led by Xu Yi, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Virginia School of Engineering and Applied Science…
