Microsoft performs operations with multiple error-corrected qubits
Microsoft has tripled its logical qubits, nearing a hundred, and developed new error correction methods in collaboration with Atom Computing, marking significant progress in practical quantum computing applications.
Read original articleMicrosoft has announced significant advancements in its Azure Quantum Cloud service, showcasing operations with the largest number of error-corrected qubits to date. The company has tripled its logical qubits since April, moving closer to achieving a hundred logical qubit capability. In collaboration with Atom Computing, which utilizes neutral atoms for qubit storage, Microsoft is making strides in quantum computing, transitioning from theoretical concepts to practical applications. The new error correction scheme allows for the identification and correction of errors in qubits, which are essential for reliable quantum calculations. This method involves measuring ancillary qubits to detect discrepancies in data, enabling the identification of errors without collapsing the quantum state. While various error correction schemes exist, the challenge remains to maintain low error rates in hardware qubits to ensure effective error detection and correction. Microsoft's previous work with Quantinuum, which employs ion-based qubits, demonstrated promising error rates, and the latest developments further enhance the capability to perform multiple logical operations with error correction. These advancements signal a pivotal moment in quantum computing, moving towards systems capable of performing complex calculations that surpass classical computing limitations.
