Individual defects in superconducting quantum circuits have been imaged for the first time, thanks to research by scientists ...

The promise of so-called “quantum advantage” is simple. By harnessing the counterintuitive rules of quantum mechanics, ...

Quantum computing will not deliver truly useful business results overnight, but the pace of progress is no longer linear; ...

Enrique Rico Ortega and Sofia Vallecorsa explain how quantum computing will allow physicists to model complex dynamics, from ...

A former “D” student from Norway, he made his mark at G.E.’s Research Lab in the U.S., in part by confirming a pivotal theory ...

Quantum computers hold incredible promise, but one major challenge still stands in the way: their struggle to correct errors ...

A new silicon material switches from insulator to metal in picoseconds. This breakthrough could speed up future computers.

Quantum physics is the study of matter and energy at its most fundamental level. A central tenet of quantum physics is that energy comes in indivisible packets called quanta.

The Department of Applied Physics pursues vigorous research in physical sciences and creates important industrial applications.

A new study shows entanglement can be reversed—if you plug in a quantum battery. The finding rewrites the rules of the ...
