Silicon-Based Qubits Very Similar in Design to Classic Silicon Transistors

“Hot” spin quantum bits in silicon transistors   Quantum bits (qubits) are the smallest units of information in a quantum computer. Currently, one of the biggest challenges in developing this kind of powerful computer is scalability. A research group at the University of Basel, working with the IBM Research Laboratory in Rüschlikon, has made a […]

Atom Computing Brings Two Heavy-Hitters Onto Their Team, Each With A Fierce Belief in the Power of Quantum Computing

— Atom Computing, a quantum computing start-up obsessed with helping companies and researchers reach their next big breakthrough, today announces two new quantum veterans joining, Denise Ruffner as Chief Business Officer and Justin Ging as Chief Product Officer. Denise and Justin round out Atom Computing’s leadership team of technical and industry experts including CEO Rob Hays, Founder & CTO Ben Bloom, Co-Founder & Chief Scientist Jonathan King, Chief Control Systems Engineer Robin Coxe, and Marketing Communications Director Ashley Kusowski. Together, they will drive the company’s commercialization of Phoenix, a 100-qubit quantum system, and quantum solutions roadmap.

Quantum Materials Establish a New Structure for Computation

Physicists at New York University have developed a means to create a new form of memory, making a significant step forwards in high-performance computing. The work builds on research into neuromorphic computing, which seeks to mimic the function of the human brain.
