Error Rates by Qubit Type
Error rates in quantum computing refer to the probability that a quantum operation (like a gate, readout, or qubit state preservation) fails or produces incorrect results. These errors are a….
Decoherence Time Metrics
Decoherence is one of the biggest challenges in quantum computing. It refers to the process by which a quantum system loses its quantum properties due to interaction with the environment…..
Quantum Gate Speed
Quantum gate speed refers to how fast a quantum gate operation can be executed on a quantum computer. It is a crucial parameter for evaluating the performance, efficiency, and feasibility….
Trapped Ion Qubits
Trapped ion qubits are individual atoms that are used as the basic units of quantum information — called qubits. These atoms are held in place (or “trapped”) using electric and….
The challenges of scaling quantum computers
Quantum computing promises to revolutionize problem-solving in fields like cryptography, drug discovery, AI, and materials science. However, despite rapid advancements, today’s quantum computers remain small-scale prototypes with limited real-world applications…..
