Quantum Bits Entangled Using Sound at Distance with Quality. The University of Chicago develops a way to entangle two superconducting qubits with sound vice microwaves.
University of Oregon, Center for Optical, Molecular, and Quantum Science. Ultra-secure online communications, completely indecipherable if intercepted, are a step closer with the help of
IMAGE: Scientists at Rice and Northwestern universities have developed a technique to get images of two-dimensional borophene and match them with models. Polymorphic borophene shows
The National Quantum Initiative Program is another recently developed U.S. Government attempt to openly get ahead of the quantum computing curve. The NQIP action plan made its way on to the internet in April of 2018. In addition to the Quantum Computing Research Act of 2018, the NQIP aspires to spurn inter-agency collaboration. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), National Science Foundation (NSF), U.S. Dept. of Energy (DOE), and others, are called on to coordinate and lead the initiative.
It’s Epic, or Rather, EPiQC. The National Science Foundation, as The Qubit Report has reported previously, is working with five universities to broaden quantum’s exposure.
Making Quantum Error Correction Feasible Error correction is critical to making quantum computing succeed. Recent U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) awards have put $1.3M (USD)
