In Q-NEXT-supported research recently published in Nature Nanotechnology, a research team describes a new #quantum transducer that’s easier to manufacture than previous technologies and can be integrated into future quantum networks. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gA2zj3R5 The Caltech study, led by Mohammad Mirhosseini, presents a new microwave-to-optical transducer, a device that converts microwave signals (used in superconducting quantum computers) into optical signals (used in fiber-optic communication). Such a device is crucial for connecting distant quantum computers into a network. Most existing transducers rely on materials called piezoelectric materials, which introduce challenges in fabrication and performance. The Caltech team built a different kind of transducer using pure crystalline silicon, removing the need for piezoelectric materials. Silicon’s low energy loss helps the device operate with extremely low noise. The team’s device achieved continuous microwave-to-optical conversion with a rate 100 times faster than previous technologies with similar noise performance. The design is scalable, meaning it can be fabricated in large quantities and integrated into quantum networks. This breakthrough brings us closer to building quantum networks, where superconducting quantum computers in different locations can communicate over fiber-optic links. 🔗 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gA2zj3R5 The paper’s authors are Han Zhao, William Chen, Abhishek Kejriwal and Mohammad Mirhosseini. #quantumscience #quantuminformationscience #quantumnetworks #quantumcommunication

Breaking news: An incredible #quantumcomputing milestone published in Nature Magazine. Congratulations to the authors, including those who conducted their work at Argonne National Laboratory: Jeffrey Larson, Henry Minzhao Liu, Yuri Alexeev and Danylo Lykov. 🎉
Managing Director, Distinguished Engineer, Global Head of Applied Research, Global Head of Quantum Computing at JPMorganChase
I'm thrilled to share that a groundbreaking paper has been published in the Nature Magazine today by an incredible team led by JPMorganChase and including Quantinuum, Argonne National Laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and the The University of Texas at Austin. Together, we achieved a significant industry milestone by demonstrating a potential application of #quantumcomputing beyond the capabilities of classical computing. We utilized our previous work on Random Circuit Sampling (RCS) to generate Certified Randomness, a crucial resource for applications in #cryptography, fairness, and #privacy — key requirements across various industries. Specifically, we performed a certified-randomness-expansion protocol based on RCS that outputs more randomness than it takes as input — a task unachievable by classical computation. The study leveraged the 56-qubit Quantinuum System Model H2 trapped-ion #quantum computer, which, thanks to its high-fidelity qubits, low error rates, all-to-all qubit connectivity, and relatively long qubit-coherence times demonstrated that a quantum computer can now showcase computational power beyond the most advanced classical supercomputers. The protocol involved two steps: 1. We first generated challenge random circuits and sent them to Quantinuum's potentially untrusted, remote quantum computer, which returned samples significantly faster than classical simulation could achieve. This was tested against the best currently-known techniques for simulating random circuits on the world’s most powerful supercomputers. 2. We mathematically certified the randomness using the most powerful classical supercomputers at full-machine utilization, owned by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and hosted at the Oak Ridge, Argonne, and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratories. Accessing H2 remotely over the internet, the team generated and certified 71,313 bits of entropy, proving the randomness couldn't be mimicked by classical methods. Certified quantum randomness is verified true randomness. This solution is significantly more secure than any form of classical randomness or pseudo-randomness, and because it is certified, this is now the first quantum randomness solution that does not require you to trust the quantum hardware provider that generated the random numbers for you. This achievement marks a pivotal moment in quantum computing, opening doors to new possibilities and applications. Congratulations to the entire team for this remarkable accomplishment! 🌟 Link to the Nature Magazine paper: https://lnkd.in/e-GAM4Gd Link to JPMorganChase's press release: https://lnkd.in/eSfVCzcs Link to JPMorganChase's blog: https://lnkd.in/e46WyWcu Special thanks to Lori Beer, Global CIO of JPMorganChase, whose vision to invest in Quantum Computing six years ago by creating the Global Technology Applied Research lab and constantly providing us with encouragement and support has made this milestone possible.

In a Nature study led by Vidya Madhavan of the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, a research team explores unusual behavior in a certain class of superconductors. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eP9kpJJs The team was interested in whether these materials exhibit broken time-reversal symmetry. If you reverse time, would the tape of the system’s behavior also play backwards? If not, then time-reversal symmetry is broken. The team found they could manipulate the material’s behavior in new ways with light and magnetic fields. And, in fact, the superconducting material indicated a strong interaction between electrons and vibrations in the material that leads to an enhanced sensitivity to strain. The electromagnetic field response provides strong evidence for broken time-reversal symmetry. The researchers’ findings open possibilities for controlling #quantum materials using light, which could have exciting applications in future quantum technologies.

Wilson, Ziqiang Wang, Rafael M. Fernandes and Vidya Madhavan. #quantuminformationscience #quantummaterials #quantumscience
