Scientists at Quantum Circuits Inc. are working to develop and bring to market the first practical quantum computers.
The New Haven-based, nearly decade-old startup, which is rooted in collaborations with Yale University, has taken multiple important steps forward in recent months, as it competes with tech giants like IBM, Google and Amazon to become an industry leader in developing novel quantum computing technology for complex problem-solving.
Researchers at Yale have for the first time, using a process known as quantum error correction, substantially extended the lifetime of a quantum bit a long-sought-after goal and one of the trickiest challenges in the field of quantum physics.
