Quantum computers of the future may be closer to reality thanks to new research from Caltech and Oratomic, a Caltech-linked start-up company. Theorists and experimentalists teamed up to develop a new approach for reducing the errors that riddle today's rudimentary quantum computers.

An international team of scientists proved the never-before-seen molecule's exotic nature using a quantum computer, potentially ushering in new scientific opportunities.

As conditions stand today, the fundamentals show no reason to buy D-Wave Quantum stock at these levels. Admittedly, valuation did not stop last year's run-up in the stock, and the possibility of a recovery could draw in speculative investors.

Silicon is ubiquitous in modern electronics, and now it is becoming increasingly useful in quantum computing. In particular, silicon's compatibility with existing chip technology and its long coherence times in silicon-based spin qubits make it a promising material for scalable quantum computing.

By Anne Kauranen HELSINKI, March 30 (Reuters) - IQM Quantum Computers has secured 50 million euros ($57.64 million) in venture financing from funds and accounts managed by BlackRock to accelerate its global growth,

Quantum Computing (QUBT) is back in focus after partnering with Quantum Corridor to install its Dirac-3 quantum optimization machine at the Digital Crossroad data center, offering secure, subscription based access to Midwest institutions.

Scientists in the Riccio College of Engineering at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and the University of California Santa Barbara have demonstrated key laser and ion trap components necessary to help drastically shrink the size of quantum computers,

The hope for quantum computers is that the devices will be able to solve complex tasks such as predicting how chemicals react or cracking encrypted text. One of the main reasons that the machines are not yet living up to that potential is the fact that their error rates are high.
