Researchers at USTC in China turned to microwave-based error correction to achieve a distance-7 logical qubit, much like ...

Computers also make mistakes. These are usually suppressed by technical measures or detected and corrected during the calculation. In quantum computers, this involves some effort, as no copy can be ...

For the first time, a quantum computer has improved its results by repeatedly fixing its own mistakes midcalculation with a technique called quantum error correction ...

Quantinuum has unveiled a third-generation quantum computer that could be easier to scale up than rival approaches. The US- and UK-based company Quantinuum today unveiled Helios, its third-generation ...

Today’s quantum computing hardware is severely limited in what it can do by errors that are difficult to avoid. There can be problems with everything from setting the initial state of a qubit to ...

There’s a strong consensus that tackling most useful problems with a quantum computer will require that the computer be capable of error correction. There is ...

If you’ve ever sent a text message, played a CD, or stored a file in the cloud, you’ve benefited from error correction. This revolutionary idea dates back to the ...

As memory bit cells of any type become smaller, bit error rates increase due to lower margins and process variation. This can be dealt with using error correction to ...

'This is easily the most powerful quantum computer on Earth': Scientists unveil Helios, a record-breaking quantum system They also calculated that a quantum computer built using their architecture ...
