MIT affiliates engage with the MIT-IBM Computing Research Lab to bring rigorous theory to production systems. Lauren Hinkel|MIT-IBM Computing Research Lab Publication Date: September 2, 2026

Quantum computer problems keep making headlines without changing everyday life. The reason isn’t raw power — it’s that these machines make mistakes faster than they can fix them. Noise from heat, vibration, and stray electromagnetic fields corrupts calculations before they finish. Yale is now leading a new NSF-funded center called NSF PRACTIQAL, backed by $37.5…

Samsung and SK Telecom have unveiled the Galaxy Quantum7, a new mid-range smartphone that offers virtually the same features as the Samsung Galaxy A57 5G. While the Galaxy Quantum series has always been equipped with a quantum random number generator (QRNG) in the past, SK Telecom made no mention of this feature in the announcement…

IBM has joined two cryogenic modules into a single environment at its Poughkeepsie facility and cooled the combined system to below 15 millikelvin, bringing it as close to absolute zero as possible.

Josephson junctions (JJs) made out of van der Waals (vdW) materials offer a unique route to explore novel functionalities in superconducting devices such as emergent phases, anisotropic order parameters and crystalline tunnel barriers that remain inaccessible in conventional JJs. Over the past decade, vdW JJs have advanced rapidly, driven by new fabrication techniques and a…
