“Experiment explores important pathway for quantum chemistry In a world first, Dr Cornelius Hempel has simulated the bonds of lithium hydride and hydrogen molecules using trapped-ion qubits. This explores an important pathway for one of the first practical uses of …
“A University of Sydney engineer has developed a new nanotechnology-based component that could sit at the heart of anti-counterfeiting technologies for the fashion and defence industries and fraud-proof verification techniques for online machines. Working with an international team, Dr Omid …
“Modifying surface codes can improve error correction 400 percent The instability of qubits - the building blocks of quantum computers - means they are susceptible to error. Our physicists have found that tweaking error coding can open the door to huge efficiency …
“Sydney team develops microcircuit based on Nobel Prize research Invention of the microwave circulator is part of a revolution in device engineering needed to build a large-scale quantum computer. A team at the University of Sydney and Microsoft, in collaboration …
“A novel approach to quantum architecture is helping build a qubit Dr Maja Cassidy at Microsoft’s Station Q in the University of Sydney is building a quantum computer using strange quasiparticles called Majorana fermions. In the week that the …
“University of Sydney researchers have found a solution for one of the biggest stumbling blocks preventing zinc-air batteries from overtaking conventional lithium-ion batteries as the power source of choice in electronic devices. Zinc-air batteries are batteries powered by zinc metal …
“Scientists at the University of Sydney have demonstrated the ability to “see” the future of quantum systems, and used that knowledge to preempt their demise, in a major achievement that could help bring the strange and powerful world of quantum …
