Slepians smooth the way to quantum sensing

We know that quantum bits - the heart of quantum technology - are tricky beasts. They are sensitive, easily knocked out of their quantum state due to interference from the environment. 'Noise', as this is called, is something they do not deal well with. Things get even more sensitive when we consider maintaining 'entanglement' between qubits as well.

Why Q-CTRL does quantum programming in Python

The Black Opal suite is coming to the public soon and we wanted to share a bit of insight about the architectural approach we've taken in designing our products.

Product development and quantum control teams: A collaboration that works both ways

This blog has looked at some of the great technical work being done by our quantum control engineers led by Dr Michael Hush. We've seen how their team has taken experimental insights developed over the past decade and built them into powerful computational tools for the efficient characterization and suppression of noise and errors in quantum hardware.

Q-CTRL and the road to quantum advantage

How are we going to scale-up quantum computing so that it can do something useful? Right now this question is driving research and engineering teams across the world. Their focus is overwhelmingly on hardware: designing qubits with lower error rates.

Making multi-qubit gates robust against noise

Two-qubit gates are really the top pain point for most teams working in quantum computing. Right now they dominate error rates in quantum hardware but there has been little progress in understanding pathways to improve performance.

Ubiquity of control

Central to all Q-CTRL solutions is the idea that being able to control your quantum system is more important than its apparent "inherent" stability in isolation. This is the same concept which the Wright Brothers used to build the modern aviation industry. Control superseded stability.
