SemiQon Announces Successful Testing And Global Shipping of Its Silicon-Based Quantum Chips And Transistors

March 15, 2024
SemiQon, a Finland-based startup specializing in silicon-based quantum processors, has announced it has successfully manufactured and pre-tested a 4-qubit quantum dot array from the first production run at its manufacturing facility in Espoo, Finland. The new chips are now shipping to strategic partners around the world as a toolkit for further research and development. The aim is to help make building stable logical qubits easier and faster to accelerate the use of quantum computing for complex problems.

Shortcut to Success: Toward Fast and Robust Quantum Control Through Accelerating Adiabatic Passage

Shortcut to Success: Toward Fast and Robust Quantum Control Through Accelerating Adiabatic Passage

March 10, 2024
In work published in Physical Review Letters researchers at Osaka University's Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research (SANKEN) used "the shortcuts to the adiabaticity (STA)" method to greatly speed-up the adiabatic evolution of spin qubits. The spin flip fidelity after pulse optimization can be as high as 97.8% in GaAs quantum dots. This work may be applicable to other adiabatic passage and may be useful for fast and high-fidelity quantum control.
