It looks like Quantum Computing could arrive sooner than expected, as a UK-based company has discovered a method for manufacturing quantum chips at scale using existing processes – something that could greatly accelerate research.  Quantum Motion, a startup founded by UCL and Oxford University students, have been able to create …

The engineers at Intel Labs have created a cryogenic control chip, code-named Horse Ridge. This chip is a step in the right direction for the creation of the first commercially viable quantum computers. Horse Ridge will be able to manage multiple qubits (quantum bits) and define the next steps for …

D-Wave, a name that will be unfamiliar to some, has announced the first sale of their next-generation 5000-qubit quantum annealing computer to the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). The quantum computer has also been given an official market name “Advantage”. Last week we reported on the news that IBM was …

Closely following on from IBM's most recent quantum computing developments, Google has stepped in to the conversation. Through a now deleted scientific research publication, Google said it was the first company to achieve ‘quantum supremacy' by building a quantum computer that can perform a calculation beyond the ability of any …

This week, we saw IBM continue to push its quantum computing efforts by announcing  a 53 quantum bit/qubit capable quantum computer. That’s a big increase on IBM’s Q System One, which debuted this January boasting 20-qubits of processing power. For anyone who doesn’t know, a qubit is a quantum bit …

Google is doubling down on emerging technology, debuting its new quantum computing chip that could potentially lead to a major breakthrough. While still in the theoretical stages, the company has stated that its Bristlecone design can outdo today’s CPU technology still using silicon. “We are cautiously optimistic that quantum supremacy …

Chip makers and researchers have been circling around quantum computing for years now and while progress is being made, the industry is still “at mile one in a marathon” as Intel puts it. However, this week, a significant development was announced, with Intel unveiling that it has begun developing a …

Researchers at Sanford University have taken a big step in the further development of quantum networks, utilising photons to carry a message between entangled electronics over a mile apart for the first time in history. This has the potential to allow for the secure transmission of data over vast distances, …

Google this week announced that has teamed up with John Martinis and his team at UC Santa Barbara on development of hardware quantum information processors based on superconducting electronics. The new initiative could revolutionize the markets of microprocessors and electronics in general, but will take years to accomplish. The Quantum …
