Meet The Industry's Top Researchers at AQC24
Join Us in Cape Cod for Adaptive Quantum Circuits 2024
September 25-27 | Brewster MA (Cape Cod) | Now Accepting Poster Abstracts
Adaptive quantum circuits are emerging as a promising avenue towards quantum advantage. Adaptive Quantum Circuits 2024 (AQC24) aims to converge theorists and experimentalists, bridging academia and industry from every quantum discipline, to collectively address the challenges and opportunities provided by adaptive quantum circuits and advance practical quantum applications.
The event will 2.5 days of scientific talks that will cover various topics including QEC, reinforcement learning methods, measurement-induced phase-transitions, adaptive quantum sensing, ultra-fast calibrations and re-tuning, measurement-based entanglement generation and teleportation, error-mitigation, adaptive circuits in the context of CMP simulation, and more.
Exploring Long-Range Coupling in Superconducting Spin Qubits: A Breakthrough powered by OPX
Researchers at Prof. Leo Kouwenhoven and Prof. Christian K. Andersen’s labs at TU Delft University have achieved a significant milestone in the field of quantum computing. Their work demonstrates the strong, tunable coupling between two distant superconducting spin qubits, marking an important step towards scalable quantum information processing.
What Does It Take for a Control System to Run Shor’s Algorithm on an Error-corrected Quantum Machine?
Running Shor's algorithm on a fault-tolerant quantum computer involves significant challenges, as factoring even the simple number 21 requires over 1000 qubits and precise control. This blog explores the complex hurdles and innovative solutions in quantum control systems necessary to achieve such computation.
Low Latency Imaging for Next-Gen Mid-Circuit Quantum Measurements
Atom-and ion-based quantum computers face slow readout times (<100 Hz), limiting advanced measurements. This seminar unveils a new system with kHz readout rates and sub-100 µs latency, supporting complex gate sequences. We’ll cover the setup, including Hamamatsu’s ORCA-Quest camera and Quantum Machines' OPX controller, and share results.
Prof. Ferdinand Kuemmeth's lab at NBI has developed a real-time Hamiltonian estimation protocol for qubits. This method continuously estimates a spin qubit's fluctuating environment (a nuclear spin bath) by updating its probability distribution based on the Fokker-Planck equation. It further enhances accuracy by adaptively selecting probing times based on previous measurements to optimize information retrieval.
Quantum Machines accelerates quantum research! With over 40 new scientific research papers published in 2024, from leading labs using our products, we have selected a few recent groundbreaking papers to put in the spotlight. These papers leverage the processor-based OPX quantum control platform with its unmatched real-time processing and ease of programming.
“Quantum Machines' OPX played a key role in our roadmap. It enabled us to get the best control electronics out there [FPGA] without having to learn how to program them. QM provides a very scalable, very easy to use and very powerful hardware, which allows us to focus on the quantum science.”
Dr. Théau Peronnin
CEO and Co-Founder Alice & Bob
“The OPX’s fast feedback and unique real-time processing capabilities were critical for our experiment. Combining these with the OPX’s intuitive programming and QM’s state-of-the-art cryogenic electronics allowed us to do something that we have dreamt of doing for years.”
Prof. Ferdinand Kuemmeth
Center for Quantum Devices, Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen
“I must say I'm very happy with QM's Quantum Orchestration Platform. It's the single most reliable piece of equipment I've got in the lab. I operate it remotely and never had any problems. I strongly recommend the OPX and the QOP to my colleagues. It is by far the simplest way to do qubit physics.”
