Welcome to the QC Design practitioners mailing list


Hi there,

Welcome to the QC Design practitioners mailing list.

You’ll receive occasional emails from us when we have meaningful software updates or new technical content related to fault-tolerant quantum computing.

If you’d like a starting point, here are two posts that may be of interest:

Or check out our Carousel Crash Course on Fault Tolerance.

Thanks for joining,

Hi everyone, Welcome to the July email. This was a big month for us! Our paper Plaquette: A hardware-aware design platform for fault-tolerant quantum computers came out on the arXiv recently. You can read it here. The paper was accompanied by techncial webinar by QC Design co-founder and Scientific Advisor, Prof. Martin Plenio. You can watch the replay here: We hope you enjoy! Until next month, The QC Design team

Hi everyone, Welcome to the June email. This month we have two new blog posts to share. Fault Tolerance Across Quantum Hardware Platforms How Plaquette models the hardware-specific physics that dominates fault tolerance across platforms including superconducting qubits, neutral atoms, trapped ions, spin qubits, and photonics. Do you really need 10000 physical qubits? People often say it takes ten thousand physical qubits to make one logical qubit. That number is only a rough guide. The real...

The threshold is the intersection of the phase boundary with the Nishimori line.

Hi everyone, We have several new things to share this month. We launched Gauge, a Python package that computes the optimal error threshold for any quantum error correcting code and noise model by mapping the decoding problem to a statistical mechanical spin model. You can read about the product here. Our new blog post explains the different kinds of errors that can happen inside a quantum computer: Not all errors are equal. Also QC Design’s CEO Ish Dhand was recently on the Blonde and Quantum...
