Introduction Qubit initialization is crucial for useful quantum computing, and there are various methods in which it is implemented. Whenever we see circuits showing various algorithms, we take it as a given that the qubits all start out in their ground state. However, in reality, we cannot take this fact for granted. Qubit reset, a…

The IEEE Quantum Week 2021 is just around the corner, and we have prepared an outstanding program for it! A quantum superstar-filled panel on the future of quantum computing, as well as an extensive workshop that will teach you how to use a single platform to control 5 different types of qubits. So, be sure…
[Written in collaboration with Gal Winer]— To control qubits we need to manipulate electrical signals – this is the business of quantum control. We need to generate the right signal shape, setting both its nominal voltage value and the exact time at which it occurs. This is not always an easy task because… well, life…
We’ve all been there. You have a problem with your laptop or phone – it’s being weird and annoying and you can’t get it to do what you want. The first thing everybody always says to do is to turn it off and on again. Why does that work? At that point you’re probably too…
Written in collaboration with and extending on research by Ilan Mitnikov Quantum computing and neural networks; to be completely honest, I can’t imagine a more hyped-up combination of techy buzzwords. These days it seems like almost everything has a “quantum” prefix, and it often makes my eyes roll. I imagine that people working on machine…
I’ll start this post with a small disclaimer: my relationship status with coding is a firm “it’s complicated”. It’s been a rollercoaster of bouts of love and excitement, and moments when I vowed to never open another Vim terminal ever again. I love coding, but I’m not sure coding feels the same about me. Yet…
If you’re looking to optimize the control of your qubits and push beyond the standard quantum limits, don’t miss these APS March Meeting talks and workshops.
How I discovered QUA and the Quantum Orchestration Platform and why it completely changed the way I look at experimental workflow.
Quantum computers are advancing faster than ever, but what are the challenges we still need to overcome?
Quantum Machines to integrate Q-CTRL firmware into its platform; firms to jointly offer foundational technologies to researchers in government, academia, industry Q-CTRL, a startup that applies the principles of control engineering to accelerate the development of quantum technology, and Quantum Machines, creator of the first complete hardware and software solution for the control and operation of…
