From prosthetics to paper and AI: Europe’s innovation summit backs new tech

From prosthetics to paper and AI: Europe’s innovation summit backs new tech

Europe has the science. Now it needs the scale. An EU-backed start-up summit is trying to close that gap In a conference space at the edge of Brussels, networking reaches a crescendo as a DJ plays music in the background. On the floor, everyone is showcasing their work – from semiconductor chips to advanced renewable…
Efficient cooling method could enable chip-based trapped-ion quantum computers

Efficient cooling method could enable chip-based trapped-ion quantum computers

New technique could improve the scalability of trapped-ion quantum computers, an essential step toward making them practically useful. Quantum computers could rapidly solve complex problems that would take the most powerful classical supercomputers decades to unravel. But they’ll need to be large and stable enough to efficiently perform operations. To meet this challenge, researchers at…

Cracking the quantum code: light and glass are set to transform computing

European researchers are developing quantum computers using light and glass, in a collaboration that promises breakthroughs in computing power, battery technology and scientific discovery Giulia Acconcia grew up in the picturesque, historic town of Spoleto, nestled in the foothills of Italy’s Apennine Mountains. Already in secondary school, she became fascinated with modern technology – a…
MIT engineers advance toward a fault-tolerant quantum computer

MIT engineers advance toward a fault-tolerant quantum computer

Researchers achieved a type of coupling between artificial atoms and photons that could enable readout and processing of quantum information in a few nanoseconds In the future, quantum computers could rapidly simulate new materials or help scientists develop faster machine-learning models, opening the door to many new possibilities. But these applications will only be possible…
Ocelot quantum chip developed by AWS and Caltech to reduce quantum errors

New Ocelot chip makes strides in quantum computing

Based on "cat qubits," the technology provides a new way to reduce quantum errors. Scientists based at the AWS Center for Quantum Computing on Caltech's campus have made a leap forward in figuring out how to suppress errors in quantum computers, a pesky problem that continues to be the greatest hurdle to building the machines…
