Improved Performance of Superconducting Qubits Makes Investigation of Sapphire Substrates Compelling as an Alternative to Silicon

December 14, 2023

A white paper just released by Crystal Systems explores how the use of sapphire substrates could lead to significant improvements in the performance of superconducting qubits. Superconducting qubits – which use superconducting circuits to maintain and manipulate quantum information – are considered one of the most viable and scalable quantum

November 2, 2024

By Paulina AssmannCEO of SeQure Quantum Recently, Chinese researchers announced they had successfully cracked a 22-bit RSA key using the D-Wave Advantage quantum computer. While this caused a stir, the RSA keys used today are at least 2048 bits, which remains secure for now. However, this breakthrough is a reminder

Supercool Google Patent May Help Handle The Challenges of Hybrid Quantum-Classical Computing

November 2, 2024

Insider Brief Google’s recent patent filing shows the company is focused at advancing cryogenic cooling systems for quantum computing that don’t just target a pressing challenge — maintaining the near-zero temperatures required for quantum systems to function effectively — but also work in they hybrid quantum-classical environment that most experts

Congressional Budget Office Reviews $1.8 Billion, 5-Year National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act

November 2, 2024

Insider Brief Congress appears to be taking the next step to pass through H.R. 6213, the National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act, according to a recent report from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Introduced earlier this year and recently reported out of the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, the

In the Fight Against Noisy Quantum Computing, CVaR Proves a Worthy Opponent

November 1, 2024

Insider Brief: Quantum computing, though oft found in discussions speaking to its (potential) exponential computational power and (possibly one day) ability to solve our hardest problems, is not fairly represented without mentions of its most profound foe: noise. Current quantum computers are inherently noisy, and this noise can cloud the

MIT’s Quantum Emulator Recreates Electromagnetic Fields for Innovative Electronics Development

November 1, 2024

Insider Brief: Electromagnetic fields shape the behavior of electrons within materials, influencing properties like conductivity, magnetism, and even the transition between insulators and superconductors. In a recent study, researchers at MIT demonstrated a method to emulate electromagnetic fields on a superconducting quantum processor, creating new possibilities for studying materials with
