D-Wave’s New Gate Keeps Its Qubits’ Errors Easy to Spot
Most qubits fail unnoticed. Something nudges the quantum state, the information corrupts, and the machine has no idea until error...
A Qubit That Lasts Longer, Because of What It’s Made Of
A superconducting qubit is a beautiful, fragile thing. It holds quantum information for a flicker, a fraction of a millisecond...
Scientists Made a New State of Matter Inside a Quantum Computer, Then Braided It
Here’s a sentence that shouldn’t be possible: a team of physicists took the qubits inside a quantum computer, coaxed them...
A New Material Sorts Light by Something Weirder Than Color
Every light filter you’ve ever met sorts by the obvious stuff. Sunglasses cut glare by polarization. A red gel on...
Google’s Quantum Computer Learns From Its Mistakes Without Clocking Out
Say there was a race car that retunes its own engine mid-lap, using the exact skid marks it just left...
