Reporting in the February 26 issue of the journal Nature, a team of scientists from AWS and Caltech demonstrate a new quantum chip architecture for suppressing errors using a type of qubit known as a cat qubit. Cat qubits were first proposed in 2001, and, since then, researchers have developed and refined them. Now, the AWS team has put together the first scalable cat qubit chip that can be used to efficiently reduce quantum errors.

IonQ, a leader in the quantum computing and networking industries, today announced financial results for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024.

Quantum technology leaders Welinq and QphoX have announced a partnership to develop optical quantum interconnects for superconducting quantum computers, enabling a significant increase in computing power. These interconnects will link quantum processors, allowing them to work together in clusters, a major step toward building larger, more powerful quantum systems.

Quantum EncrYption and Science Satellite (QEYSSat), a satellite demonstrating secure ground-to-space quantum communication, will soon orbit the earth. And the researchers at the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) that are making that happen, along with collaborators at the University of Calgary and the Institut national d'optique (INO), have published a white paper outlining a future mission opportunity to establish a step towards a Canada wide quantum internet.
