PsiQuantum announces Omega, a quantum photonic chipset purpose-built for utility-scale quantum computing.
DARPA Selects PsiQuantum to Advance to Final Phase of Quantum Computing Program
Final Phase of Utility-Scale Quantum Computing Program to Focus on Production-Scale Quantum Computing Technology and High-Impact Use Cases
PsiQuantum Scaling up its Queensland Operations
PsiQuantum opens its Asia-Pacific HQ in the Brisbane CBD and released the first renders of its site at the Brisbane Airport.
PsiQuantum announces QREF and Bartiq: Open-Source Software for Better Tools, Libraries and Datasets
PsiQuantum has announced the availability of the Quantum Resource Estimation Format (QREF) and the beta release of Bartiq, a Quantum Resource Estimator (QRE) for Fault Tolerant Quantum Computing (FTQC). QREF provides an open data format to represent FTQC algorithms and Bartiq is set to guide researchers and developers through the complexities of resource estimation for various fault-tolerant quantum algorithms.
PsiQuantum Partners With U.S. Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory to Access State-of-the-Art, High-Powered Cryogenic Cooling Capabilities for Large-Scale Quantum Computing
PsiQuantum to start installation of its cryogenic quantum modules, each containing photonic quantum hardware, into SLAC’s LCLS-II cryoplant facility, capable of kilowatts of cooling power. This partnership accelerates the development and testing of this novel technology while also defining opportunities for further collaboration in the future.
The World-Changing Race to Develop the Quantum Computer
On the outskirts of Santa Barbara, California, between the orchards and the ocean, sits an inconspicuous warehouse, its windows tinted brown and its exterior painted a dull gray. The facility has almost no signage, and its name doesn’t appear on Google Maps.
Quantum computing just might save the planet
The emerging technology of quantum computing could revolutionize the fight against climate change, transforming the economics of decarbonization and becoming a major factor in limiting global warming to the target temperature of 1.5°C (see sidebar “What is quantum computing?”).
DARPA Gets Serious About Quantum: Five-Year Funding To Build Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computers Goes To Atom Computing, Microsoft And PsiQuantum
DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, has announced that it has selected the companies that will receive funding under its Underexplored Systems for Utility-Scale Quantum Computing (US2QC) program.
PsiQuantum Has A Goal For Its Million Qubit Photonic Quantum Computer To Outperform Every Supercomputer On The Planet
In 2009, Jeremy O'Brien, a professor at the University of Bristol, published a research paper describing how to repurpose on-chip optical components originally developed by the telecom industry to manipulate single particles of light and perform quantum operations. By 2016, based on the earlier photonic research, O’Brien and three of his academic colleagues, Terry Rudolph, Mark Thompson, and Pete Shadbolt, created PsiQuantum.
U.S. Government to Provide $25 Million to a Global Foundries/PsiQuantum Partnership
The funding will be provided by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) through the Air Force Research (AFRL) Laboratory located in Rome, New York. This lab has been designated as the Quantum Information Science Research Center for the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Space Force.
