Why Qubits have Consequences for IP
You may not have had cause to ponder it, but the everyday computers we take for granted operate by performing logical operations on ‘bits’ of information. Each bit is a binary unit of information, and can have only a value of either 0 or 1. In the simplest sense, today’s computers perform their many useful […]
Chinese Scientists Report World’s First Integrated Quantum Communication Network
Chinese scientists have established the world’s first integrated quantum communication network, combining over 700 optical fibers on the ground with two ground-to-satellite links to achieve quantum key distribution over a total distance of 4,600 kilometers for users across the country, according to a news release. The team, led by Jianwei Pan, Yuao Chen and Chengzhi […]

The Classical Interpretation of Controlled Operations
Photo by Nick Nice on Unsplash This post is going to be the first in a series where we will explore together the world of quantum entanglement. In this first article, we will aim at dusting out our understanding of a very common set of entangling gates: The controlled gates. Once we are ready and […]
Oxford Instruments NanoScience Delivers First Proteox Globally to Oxford Quantum Circuits
Today, Oxford Instruments NanoScience, the pioneers in dilution refrigerator technology, announces its partnership with Oxford Quantum Circuits (OQC), to accelerate quantum computing commercialisation in the UK. As part of the collaboration, OQC is taking delivery of Oxford Instruments’ next generation Cryofree® refrigerator, Proteox. Proteox was specifically designed to facilitate high-density wiring with insert-modulatory. OQC will […]
A New Scalable Approach Towards Quantum Computers May Treat Qubits Like Dominoes
Powerful, large-scale quantum computer will depend on a clever design that allows the control and read out of multiple qubits, which are the building block of a quantum computer. Now, researchers at QuTech, a collaboration between TU Delft and TNO, have invented a new readout method that is an important step forward on the road […]
