Researchers at Google Quantum AI and collaborators have developed a quantum processor with error rates that get progressively smaller as the number of quantum bits ...

Written for you by our author Tejasri Gururaj, edited by Gaby Clark, and fact-checked and reviewed by Robert Egan —this article is the result of careful human work. We rely on readers like you to keep ...

Quantum computing is still in its infancy, easily beaten by traditional computers. One of the biggest challenges? The fact that quantum bits — qubits — are much more fragile than the bits in silicon ...

There’s a strong consensus that tackling most useful problems with a quantum computer will require that the computer be capable of error correction. There is ...

Quantum error correction (QEC) and fault-tolerant computation provide the critical framework for realising reliable quantum processors in the presence of inevitable ...
