In a groundbreaking advance that could accelerate the development of quantum technologies, researchers at the USC Viterbi Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and School of Advanced Computing have demonstrated the first optical filter capable of isolating and preserving quantum entanglement—a mysterious but powerful phenomenon at the heart of quantum computing, communication, and sensing. This work, published in Science, opens the door to compact, high-performance entanglement systems that can be integrated into quantum photonic circuits, enabling more reliable quantum computing architectures and communication networks.

Researchers at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa (Wits University) in collaboration with Huzhou University in China have discovered a way to protect quantum information from environmental disruptions, offering hope for more reliable future technologies.

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory tested a quantum computing approach to an old challenge: solving classical fluid dynamics problems.

Quantum algorithms company Phasecraft said it has developed a novel approach to quantum simulation that improves efficiency while cutting computational costs.

Christine Muschik, a research associate faculty member at Perimeter Institute and a professor at the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing, is working at the frontier of quantum computing today – using not just “qubits” that are represented as superpositions of zeros and ones, but with multi-level “qudits” that go well beyond the binary qubit realm.

ColibriTD, a quantum software company developing a platform QUICK (QUantum Innovative Computing Kit), has successfully run their efficient Hybrid Differential Equation Solver (H-DES) on IBM’s cloud-accessible quantum computer powered by the latest IBM Quantum Heron processor. This represents the first successful attempt to solve a partial differential equation (PDE) on a real quantum computer with a Variational Quantum Algorithm.

In collaboration with Hervé Lissek and Romain Fleury at EPFL’s Laboratory of Wave Engineering, Padlewski has built a novel acoustic system for exploring condensed matter and their macroscopic properties, all the while circumventing the extremely sensitive nature that is inherent to quantum phenomena. Moreover, the acoustic system can be tweaked to study properties that go beyond solid-state physics. The results are published in Physical Review B.

Quantum Machines (QM), the leading provider of advanced quantum control solutions, today announced the NVIDIA DGX Quantum Early Customer Program, with a cohort of six leading research groups and quantum computer builders. NVIDIA DGX Quantum, a reference architecture jointly developed by NVIDIA and QM, is the first tightly integrated quantum-classical computing solution, designed to unlock new frontiers in quantum computing research and development.

Scientists at the Universities of Basel and Cologne have revealed a key superconducting effect in topological insulator nanowires. Their findings bring topological insulator nanowires closer to serving as the foundation for stable, next-generation quantum bits (qubits).

Quantinuum, the industry leader in quantum computing with the world’s highest performing quantum computer, will work with NVIDIA as a founding collaborator on breakthroughs at the NVIDIA Accelerated Quantum Research Center, where operations are expected to begin later this year.
