Defining logical qubits: Criteria for Resilient Quantum Computation

Dr. Krysta M. Svore
Dr. Krysta M. Svore

As an industry, we are all collectively committed to bringing scaled quantum computing to fruition. Understanding what it will take to reach this goal is crucial not just for measuring industry progress, but also for developing a robust strategy to build a quantum machine and a quantum-ready community. That’s why in June 2023, we offered how quantu...

Azure Quantum Integrated Hybrid unlocks algorithmic primitives

Martin Roetteler
Martin Roetteler

To build a quantum supercomputer that can solve the world’s hardest and most complex problems in chemistry and materials science, several key ingredients need to come together. First, today’s foundational-level quantum machines need to be scaled up to a size of at least one million stable and controllable qubits. These are the table stakes for solv...
