Podcast September 7, 2022 Podcast | Topological Quantum Computing with Microsoft Azure Quantum An 85-year-old idea may hold the key to nearly error-free qubits. The Majorana fermion has taken on almost mythical status, but Microsoft recently solved a critical technical hurdle to creating topological qubits with the particle. How close are we to quantum computers with this technology? What other future developments can we expect from Azure Quantum? Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a… Podcast July 13, 2022 Podcast | Quantum Interconnect with Entangled Networks Things can get tricky when you try to cram too many qubits onto one quantum processor. Is the best way to build a machine with thousands of qubits actually to connect or “interconnect” many smaller processors together? And can this concept be extended to interconnect several large-scale machines across vast distances? Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat about the technology that might… Podcast June 1, 2022 Podcast | A UK-Based Quantum Computer via Amazon Quantum computing via cloud access feels global, but there are reasons to have these machines located in a particular region.
