A new quantum computer prototype developed by Chinese scientists, known as "Jiuzhang 3.0," with 255 detected photons, has achieved a calculation speed that is 10 quadrillion times faster in solving Gaussian boson sampling problems compared with the world's existing fastest supercomputer. Also in toda...
China's newest quantum computer chip production line at full capacity China's first production line generating chips for the next-generation Wukong quantum computer made its public debut via China Media Group livestream on Tuesday. Find out all the details. Also in this newsletter, learn how the...
While the 504-qubit Xiaohong chip is China’s largest quantum chip to date, it’s not the largest in the world. That title currently belongs to Atom Computing, which announced its behemoth 1,125-qubit quantum computer in October 2023. Previous not...
Lu Chaoyang, a 34-year-old professor at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) and one of the developers of the prototype quantum computer, is nicknamed "the photon wizard." "You can't find two identical leaves in the world, but we can make two identical photons -- ...
This year, the 72-qubit superconducting quantum computer Origin Wukong was finally unveiled. Wukong is the name of the fictional character Monkey King from the 16th century classic Journey to the West, who was endowed with magic powers. The name symbolizes the machine's formidable capabilities. ...
HEFEI, Dec. 11 (Xinhua) -- China's first quantum computer control system with independent intellectual property rights has been launched in Hefei, capital of eastern province of Anhui, according to sources with the city's high-tech zone on Tuesday. ...
Quantum computing is based on the principles of quantum mechanics and qubits. In September 2019, Google launched a 53 qubit computer called Sycamore, which took only 200 seconds to calculate a mathematical algorithm. At that time the world's fastest supercomputer Summit took two days to do the ...
Kong Weicheng, deputy director of the Anhui Quantum Computing Engineering Research Center, noted that the computer is integrated with the third-generation quantum computing control system, which enhances the overall operational efficiency of the quantum computer by many times. ...
