How to Cope With the Side Effects of Quantum Error Correction
It is well established that quantum error correction can improve the performance of quantum sensors. But new theory work cautions that, unexpectedly, the approach can also give rise to inaccurate and misleading results — and shows how to rectify these shortcomings.
Confining and Exploiting Light: U. of South Hampton & ETH Zurich Researchers Discover New Limit of Trapping Photons at the Nanoscale
Physicists from the University of Southampton and ETH Zürich have reached a new threshold of light-matter coupling at the nanoscale.
The international research, published this week in Nature Photonics, combined theoretical and experimental findings to establish a fundamental limitation of our ability to confine and exploit light.
The Quantum Computing Hub Coming to ETH Zurich and the Paul Scherrer Institute
ETH Zurich and PSI found Quantum Computing Hub ETH Zurich and the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) establish a joint centre for the development of quantum computers.
