Quantum error correction 1,2 (QEC) protects quantum information by encoding the state of a logical qubit into several physical qubits and is crucial to ensure that ...
Quantum cat states built from intrinsically nonclassical components have been demonstrated by Oxford physicists in a trapped ...
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 ...
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 ...
These novel error-correction codes can handle quantum codes with hundreds of thousands of qubits, potentially enabling large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computing, with applications in diverse fields ...
There’s widespread agreement that most useful quantum computing will have to wait for the development of error-corrected qubits. Error correction involves ...
Surface code: illustration of how error correction works for bit and phase flips. The measure qubits on light blue backgrounds check for phase flip errors while the ...
The National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT, President: TOKUDA Hideyuki Ph.D.) and the Nagoya Institute of Technology (NITech, President: OBATA Makoto), collaborated with ...
More from less Concepts from gauge theory could be used to reduce the number of qubits needed to do quantum error correction. (Courtesy: iStock/Quardia) Concepts from ...
