What is being developed with quantum computers today?
The risk of missing out on the competitive advantage quantum computing offers is rising. Governments and private investors worldwide are placing multi-billion-dollar bets that the industry will produce huge long-term returns. Yet, for this to be realised, the theoretical advantage of quantum computers must be translated into real-world commercial value. In this article, IDTechEx explores which applications are being developed across the mate...
Controlling qubits: DC bias and size challenges in quantum
Quantum computing, with its promise of efficient calculations in challenging applications, is rapidly advancing in research and development. The pivotal technology for quantum computing lies in the control and evaluation of qubits. This article explores the challenges and solutions associated with the size of quantum computers as well as the DC voltage bias sources crucial for controlling and evaluating flux-tuneable superconducting qubits and si...
