Trapped-ion quantum computing operates at room temperature, unlike other types that need extreme cold. This type of quantum computing is promising for stable, long-term research and application.

Research at the Quantum Systems Accelerator has been steadily breaking new ground, quickening the pace toward flexible, stable quantum computers with capabilities well beyond those of today's ...

The simulation of strongly interacting many-body systems is a key objective of quantum physics research, as it can help to test the predictions of physics theories and yield new valuable insight.

This outcome also highlights an increasing divergence between quantum hardware approaches. Superconducting qubits, which are led by industry leaders such as IBM and Google, provide fast gate speeds ...

Using a powerful machine made up of 56 trapped-ion quantum bits, or qubits, researchers have achieved something once thought impossible. They have proven, for the first time, that a quantum computer ...

New technique could improve the scalability of trapped-ion quantum computers, an essential step toward making them practically useful. (Nanowerk News) Quantum computers could rapidly solve complex ...

IonQ is far from profitability, but its trapped-ion technology is unique among quantum computing companies. IBM has released several powerful quantum computers and plans to invest $30 billion in its ...

The end of the year is usually a busy time in the quantum computing arena, as companies often try to announce that they’ve reached major milestones before the year wraps up. This year has been no ...

In the previous article titled “The Basics: How Quantum Computers Work and Where the Technology is Heading,” we provided an overview of foundational quantum computing concepts, including qubits ...

Quantum computing has long been dominated by proprietary machines locked behind corporate and national lab firewalls, but a different model is starting to take shape. A growing coalition of ...

Trapped ion quantum computing represents one of the most promising approaches to realising scalable quantum processors. By confining electrically charged atoms using electromagnetic fields, ...

Quantum computing could be the next area of explosive growth in the tech sector. The consultants at McKinsey Digital have estimated that the industry could be worth as much as $1.3 billion by 2035, ...
