Quantum computing has long occupied the edges of our collective imagination – frequently mentioned, rarely understood. For many, it remains a distant prospect rather than an immediate concern. But ...

Four decades ago, physicists were theorizing that the mind-bending mechanics of quantum physics could be harnessed to make a new kind of computer that’s exponentially more powerful than conventional ...

Quantum entanglement, the invisible connection between particles that entwines them in such a way that they act as one, has ...

Last month, Microsoft announced an advance that could be an important step forward in the long road to building a quantum computer—if true. That progress has followed the projection of semiconductor ...

When most people imagine quantum computers, they think of machines that use particles of light, called photons, to process ...

The operation of quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, relies on the ...

Quantum computing is one of those technologies where real-world applications always seem to lie just over the horizon. The next big thing is announced before quickly becoming a forgotten article from ...

One notable example is the $34 million secured by British quantum algorithms specialist Phasecraft from a group of investors, including an entity linked to Danish pharmaceutical ...

In a leap forward for quantum computing, physicists unveiled an eight-qubit topological quantum processor, the first of its kind. The chip, built as a proof-of-concept for the scientists' design, ...

The venture capital arm of semiconductor giant Nvidia was among the investors in a $1 billion funding round for quantum ...
