Japan has put a real ion-trap quantum device online, making it accessible through the cloud Japan has taken a practical step ...

Five on a line: an ion trap with four segmented blade electrodes used to trap a linear chain of atomic ions for quantum-information processing. Each ion is addressed optically for individual control ...

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Sandia National Laboratories has produced its first lot of a new world-class ion trap, a central component for certain quantum computers. The new device, dubbed the Enchilada Trap, ...

Physicists have demonstrated an ion trap with a built-in optical fiber that collects light emitted by single ions, allowing quantum information stored in the ions to be measured. The advance could ...

The energy states of electrons in an atom follow the laws of quantum mechanics: they are not continuously distributed but restricted to certain well- defined values – this is also called quantisation.

In any normal situation, if you’d read an article that about building your own quantum computer, a fully understandable and natural reaction would be to call it clickbaity poppycock. But an event like ...

Quantum computers could be more easily mass produced thanks to the development of a two-dimensional ion trap – one of their key components. A quantum computer could be much faster than a conventional ...

IonQ beat its technology roadmap projection by more than a year by demonstrating its ReconfigurableMulticore Quantum Architecture (RMQA). This technology should eventually allow IonQ to begin scaling ...

Agilent’s 240 Ion Trap GC/MS gives you unmatched full scan sensitivity, while letting you choose from a range of advanced ionization and scanning techniques to enhance selectivity and detection limits ...
