Quantum error correction

Protecting the fragile future of quantum computing

Quantum technology harnesses the phenomena of superposition and entanglement to achieve superior information processing and computational capabilities. However, these delicate quantum states are highly susceptible to environmental noise. To successfully implement quantum technology, it will be crucial to develop effective and active quantum error-correction methods that safeguard these fragile states.

Yale researchers are focused on advancing quantum error correction through a blend of robust quantum circuit design, customized error-correction codes tailored to specific noise patterns, and the development of qubits with built-in noise resistance.
