Quantum Computers And CMOS Semiconductors: A Review And Future Predictions


With the advent of quantum computing, the need for peripheral fault-tolerant logic control circuitry has reached new heights. In classical computation, the unit of information is a “1” or “0”. In quantum computers, the unit of information is a qubit which can be characterized as a “0”, “1”, or a superposition of both values (known as a “superimposed state”). The control c... » read more

Circuit knitting Based On Quasiprobability Simulation


New paper "Circuit knitting with classical communication, " from researchers at ETH Zurich and IBM Quantum. Abstract: "The scarcity of qubits is a major obstacle to the practical usage of quantum computers in the near future. To circumvent this problem, various circuit knitting techniques have been developed to partition large quantum circuits into subcircuits that fit on smaller devices,... » read more

Research Bits: May 3


Fingerprinting quantum noise Scientists from the University of Chicago and Purdue University propose a different method of understanding the effect of noise in quantum computers. Instead of trying to measure it directly, they created a 'fingerprint' of how the noise impacts a program run on the computer. “We wondered if there was a way to work with the noise, instead of against it,” sai... » read more

Parallel Circuit Execution & NISQ Computing


Research from LIRMM, University of Montpellier, CNRS. Abstract "Quantum computing is performed on Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) hardware in the short term. Only small circuits can be executed reliably on a quantum machine due to the unavoidable noisy quantum operations on NISQ devices, leading to the under-utilization of hardware resources. With the growing demand to access quan... » read more

Current Knowledge & Future Development In 2D Magnetic Materials Research


Abstract: "Magnetism in two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) materials has recently emerged as one of the most promising areas in condensed matter research, with many exciting emerging properties and significant potential for applications ranging from topological magnonics to low-power spintronics, quantum computing, and optical communications. In the brief time after their discovery, 2D... » read more
