Introduction Google, IBM and Rigetti are three of the leading companies at the forefront of developing quantum processors. In this article, we will compare and contrast their different approaches. Overview of quantum computing Quantum computers use qubits (quantum bits) instead of regular bits used in classical computers. Qubits can exist in a superposition of 0 […]

There are several leading approaches to building quantum computers, with two major ones being gate-model quantum computers and quantum annealing. Though both leverage quantum effects, they have fundamental differences. How Quantum Computers Work To understand the distinctions between gate-model and annealing quantum computers, we must first grasp how quantum computers function differently than classical ones.

Quantum computing is an emerging technology that leverages the properties of quantum mechanics to perform computations in ways that classical computers cannot. There are several software frameworks available for developing quantum algorithms and programs, with three major options being: Q#, Qiskit, and Cirq. This article provides an overview and comparison of these quantum programming platforms.

What are Anyons? Anyons are quasiparticles that occur only in two dimensional systems and have fractional statistics that are neither fermionic nor bosonic. They were first theorized in the 1980s as emergent particles in topological phases of matter like the fractional quantum Hall states. Quantum Statistics Background Particles come in two varieties based on their

Quantum computing is an exciting and rapidly advancing field that promises to revolutionize computing. There are two main approaches to building quantum computers, Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices and fault-tolerant quantum computers. Here we explore the key differences between these two types of quantum computers. What are NISQ devices? NISQ devices refer to the
