Novel Hardware Approach Produces a New Quantum Computing Paradigm
Department of Energy, Office of Science

To run on a quantum computer, algorithms must be decomposed into a sequence of quantum gates, a difficult process. In this study, researchers developed a novel 鈥渉ybrid鈥 approach to quantum hardware design that replaces part of the quantum circuit with a physical evolution that relies on natural interactions within the system. This approach significantly reduces the complexity of executing quantum algorithms.
