The results arrived one week afterGoogle published a paperin Nature Communications also showing logical qubits overpowering errors.
That’s why Honeywell is claiming its full error correction achievement as a first.
The trouble is all qubits can be easily perturbed, and calculations are derailed when they are.
That’s why quantum computers typically run at extremely low temperatures in vibration-proof housings.
Quantum computing
Honeywell demonstrated its technique on its10-qubit H1 quantum computer.
Different aspects of QEC, including Honeywell’s logical qubits, should enable more advanced algorithms.
Every other quantum computing company is trying to improve qubit operations, too.
