In labs across the world, scientists are developing the power of quantum mechanics, a field of physics that behaves unlike anything we experience in our everyday lives. In 2019, Google announced that its quantum computer had achieved “quantum supremacy,” which could allow new kinds of computers to perform calculations at what were once unimaginable speeds. Other companies and research labs

Quantum computers are one of the key future technologies of the 21st century. Researchers at Paderborn University, working under Professor Thomas Zentgraf and in cooperation with colleagues from the Australian National University and Singapore University of Technology and Design, have developed a new technology for manipulating light that can be used as a basis for future optical quantum computers. … Read More

Quantum computers hold great promise, as they operate much faster than conventional ones, thanks to quantum physics. The catch? They’re more error prone.

Kosuke Mitarai, an assistant professor at Osaka University’s graduate engineering school who made this year’s Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia: Enterprise Technology list, is attempting to overcome that and enable quantum computers to
