Quantum computers work by applying quantum operations, such as quantum gates, to delicate quantum states. Ideally, quantum computers can solve complex equations at staggeringly fast speeds that vastly ...

Jacob Benestad in front of an experimental setup in the laboratory at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen. This setup is similar to the one used during the group's experiments at the ...

Teleportation is a reality in 2025 — well, at least for quantum computers. In February 2025, Oxford University demonstrated the teleportation of quantum data from one independent quantum processor to ...

Governments and tech companies continue to pour money into quantum technology in the hopes of building a supercomputer that can work at speeds we can't yet fathom to solve big problems. Imagine a ...

This article is part of a package on the future of quantum computing. Read about the most promising applications of these machines here and see an illustrated field guide to qubits here. Inside a ...

Google has published research suggesting a future quantum computer could theoretically derive a bitcoin private key from its public key in about nine minutes, threatening the security of Bitcoin and ...

"We are laying critical groundwork to enable quantum computers with more than 100,000 qubits," Will said. In a paper published in Nature, Will, Yu, and their colleagues combine two powerful ...
