Semiconductor manufacturing is dependent upon chemistry for photoresists and other key processes. IBM Quantum and JSR (Japan) want to use a Quantum Centric supercomputer to accelerate Chemistry analysis to bootstrap semiconductor manufacturing. The Quantum Centric supercomputer will help solve quantum chemistry. Brian WangBrian Wang is a Futurist Thought Leader and a popular Science blogger with …
I was at a Q2B conference presentation by PsiQuantum on their work to develop fault-tolerant over one million qubit quantum computers. They are developing new optical and photonic components to achieve truly breakthrough capabilities. They have a staff of over 250 people and have dedicated fabs to create their systems. This seems like a viable …
There was a Quantum Computing Innovation Panel at the Q2B conference a couple of weeks ago. The Q2B conference had over 800 attendees and 140+ speakers. The Panelists were: Celia Mertzbacker – Quantum economic development consortium (setup by NIST) QEDC Jake Taylor – Chief science officer – Riverlane. Error correction quantum computing, Cambridge UK High …
I have been following quantum computers closely for over two decades and I spent the last few days meeting with many of the major quantum computer companies, listening to talks and presentations and hearing from representatives of several governmental agencies and groups at the Q2B conference (Quantum to Business) . UPDATE : This article has …
Yonatan Cohen is the CTO of Quantum Machines. I, Brian Wang of Nextbigfuture, interviewed Yonatan at the Q2B quantum computer conference yesterday, December 6, 2022. Quantum Machines makes a comprehensive hardware and software platform for performing the most complex quantum algorithms and experiments and advancing the world of quantum computing. The heart of their technology …
Here is a three-hour talk on quantum computing and quantum theory reality and hype. Scott Aaronson is a professor of computer science at University of Texas at Austin and director of its Quantum Information Center. Previously he received his PhD at UC Berkeley and was a faculty member at MIT in Electrical Engineering and Computer …
Huge announcements in Quantum Computer Technology have been recently made and there is a clear and active path to 4000 by 2025 and 16000+ qubits by 2027. 70 error-mitigated qubits with over 50 step layers of algorithmic capability is believed to be the point where quantum computers will surpass exaflop supercomputers for cracking big problems. …
IBM has a 433 qubit quantum processor called Osprey and has a roadmap for 4000 qubits in 2025 and 100,000 qubits by 2030. These are more powerful qubits than the 5000+ adiabatic qubits from DWave Systems. Most other quantum computer companies are at about 50-100 qubits. The number of usable error-mitigated qubits is being improved. …
There has been many billions of dollars invested into quantum computing. The picture above is partial view of the companies and institutions working toward quantum computing. William Oliver of MIT gave an overview of the status of Quantum Computing as of late 2021. There had been experimental indications that the 1 and 2 qubit systems …
D-Wave Systems was trying to raise about $300 million from a SPAC. D-Wave was hoping the completion of the merger with DPCM Capital would grant it access to a trust account worth $300 million, assuming that there were no redemptions by shareholders, but the company disclosed in a recent filing with US regulators that the …
Canadian quantum computer company, Xanadu, has used its photonic quantum computer chip, Borealis, to solve a problem in 36 microseconds versus classical supercomputers taking 9000 years. This is 7884 trillion times faster. This runtime advantage is more than 50 million times larger than that of earlier photonic demonstrations. An earlier quantum photonic computer used a …
