Intel has unveiled a new silicon chip designed to support quantum computing research efforts. Tunnel Falls is a 12-qubit device fabricated on 300-millimeter wafers and leverages Intel’s gate and contact processing methods and extreme ultraviolet lithography, the company said Thursday. The company also partnered with the Laboratory for Physical Sciences at the University of Maryland, […] More
A team of researchers at IBM demonstrated the capability of a quantum computer to generate accurate results at a scale of more than 100 quantum bits using novel error mitigation techniques. IBM said Wednesday the error mitigation techniques were developed to address the noise or disturbances that cause errors in the computations of quantum computers. […] More
A team of researchers used quantum volume as a benchmark and Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Quantum Computing User Program to compare the performance of 24 quantum computers offered by companies such as IBM, Quantinuum and Rigetti. Researchers found that most of the quantum processors, also known as noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices, operated close to the […] More
Zapata Computing and L3Harris Technologies have submitted 30 challenge scenarios in quantum computing as part of a research contract with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. The companies are leading an initiative to develop benchmarks for practical quantum computing applications in defense and other sectors, Zapata said Wednesday. The real-world computational challenges were presented as […] More
IBM has unveiled a set of capabilities designed to help government agencies, businesses and other organizations protect critical data as they transition to post-quantum cryptography. The IBM Quantum Safe technology is composed of three tools: IBM Quantum Safe Explorer, Quantum Safe Advisor and Quantum Safe Remediator, the company said Wednesday. The IBM Quantum Safe Explorer, […] More
Quantum technology is an umbrella term that encompasses a host of tools at various levels of development. It includes quantum computers—which feature an almost inconceivably high computational speed and are currently still in a gestational period—but also quantum science and applications like magnetic resource imaging machines, commonly known as MRI. Chester Kennedy Chester Kennedy, executive […] More
Lewis Shepherd, senior director of research and emerging technologies strategy at VMware, was added to the technical advisory board of Quantum Computing Inc. The executive will draw from his more than three decades of government and industry experience in research and development innovation to provide QCI with product visibility, market intelligence and insight, the quantum […] More
Strangeworks, an Austin, Texas-based software company focused on quantum computing, has closed a round of Series A financing led by Hitachi Ventures and will use the investment to support efforts to offer quantum-inspired technologies, high-performance computing, artificial intelligence and other tech platforms. IBM and Raytheon Technologies participated in the Series A round, which raised $24 […] More
Brian LaMacchia, a Microsoft who previously led its security and cryptography team, has joined Quantum Computing Inc. as a technical advisory board member. He was the second appointee named to the panel, which was created in February to guide and advance QCI’s technology commercialization and product rollouts, the company said Tuesday. LaMacchia worked with Microsoft for over […] More
Quantum computing is one of the most ascendent and sought-after technologies in today’s climate, with broad applications. Prognosticators believe that it will have widespread influence and effects in global citizens’ lives in the coming years. For example, experts have pointed to quantum’s usage in autonomous vehicles that can operationalize its speed of compute to help […] More
SandboxAQ, a quantum computing technology startup that spun off from Alphabet in 2022, has raised $500 million in a round of funding from several investors to advance quantum and cybersecurity work, Reuters reported Tuesday. Investors include former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, who serves as chairman of SandboxAQ, T. Rowe Price funds, Breyer Capital and Time […] More
IonQ looks to establish a research, development and manufacturing facility in Bothell, Washington, as part of the quantum computing company’s 10-year, $10 billion expansion plan in the Pacific Northwest. The site will be the first manufacturing plant in the U.S. to produce trapped-ion quantum systems, the company said Friday. IonQ selected a 65,000 square-foot facility […] More
