Quantum computers use qubits, which are based on quantum physics, allowing them to solve complex problems far faster than ...

A qubit is the basic unit of a quantum computer, similar to a bit in a classical computer. In this work, the qubit is made from a superconducting circuit whose energy can leak into its environment.

The race to harness quantum mechanics for computing power is finally colliding with the real economy. After a century of theory and lab work, quantum technologies are moving from chalkboards and ...

At the heart of today’s computing future lies a new kind of chip—one that could make quantum computing practical, powerful, and scalable. Scientists have been chasing this dream for decades, but one ...

Quantum computers hold the potential to revolutionize the possibilities for solving difficult computational problems that would take classical computers many years to resolve. But for those computers ...

A new ultra-fast monitoring system reveals that quantum computer qubits can change from stable to unstable in mere milliseconds.

Chemistry professor Danna Freedman crafts “designer molecules” for quantum information science. It all began with a simple origami model. As an undergrad at Harvard, Danna Freedman went to a professor ...

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.
