Science

World’s 1st mechanical qubit uses no light or electronics. It could lead to ultra-precise gravity-sensing tech.

Scientists have created the world’s first mechanical qubit: a tiny, moving system that stores quantum information using vibrations instead of electric currents or light. Qubits are the fundamental units of quantum information. Unlike the bits you’d find in a classical computer, qubits can exist as 0, 1, or a superposition of both, thanks to the […]

Qubit that makes most errors obvious now available to customers

We’re nearing the end of the year, and there are typically a flood of announcements regarding quantum computers around now, in part because some companies want to live up to promised schedules. Most of these involve evolutionary improvements on previous generations of hardware. But this year, we have something new: the first company to market […]
