In September, Microsoft made an unusual combination of announcements. It demonstrated progress with quantum error correction, something that will be needed for the ...

Today’s quantum computing hardware is severely limited in what it can do by errors that are difficult to avoid. There can be problems with everything from setting the initial state of a qubit to ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich have succeeded, for the first time, in quickly and continuously correcting errors in digital quantum systems. This means they have overcome an important hurdle on the road to ...

Error correction occurs in decoding because there are only limited legal states available at any node on the graph. When the bit stream contains an illegal code, the decoder knows an error occurred.

Researchers from Google have demonstrated a new generation of quantum computer, called Willow, which is able to run its random circuit sampling (RCS) benchmark significantly faster than a ...

The new product line is based on an open and modular error correction stack, which will allow end-users to experiment and run different quantum error correction ...
