Studying and designing novel materials is a central application of quantum mechanics. Chemists, materials scientists, and ...

IBM and an international team of researchers have used a quantum computer to accurately simulate the electronic structure of ...

Researchers have pushed quantum chip design into a new era by simulating every physical detail before fabrication. Using a ...

Phase transitions, shifts between different states of matter, are widely explored physical phenomena. So far, these transitions have primarily been studied in three-dimensional (3D) and ...

An unprecedently large quantum simulator could shed light on how exotic, potentially useful quantum materials work and help us optimise them in the future. Quantum computers may eventually harness ...

IBM unveils revolutionary quantum-centric supercomputing architecture, integrating quantum processors with GPUs and CPUs for advanced scientific research.

Recent progress in both analog and digital quantum simulations heralds a future in which quantum computers could simulate — and thereby illuminate — physical phenomena that are far too complex for ...

Physicists have built a new type of digital-analogue quantum simulator in Google’s laboratory, which can be used to study physical processes with unprecedented precision and flexibility. Two ...

After decades of looking, researchers have seen a string of atoms go through a 1D phase change so elusive that it could only happen inside a quantum simulator. “One motivation [for our experiment] is ...
