Exploring quantum chemistry applications with Tangelo and QEMIST Cloud using Amazon Braket
In this post, we show how tools from our partner Good Chemistry can help you further explore the potential of quantum computing for non-trivial molecular systems, and design experiments that you can run on Amazon Braket.
Tracking quantum experiments with Amazon Braket Hybrid Jobs and Amazon SageMaker Experiments
In this blog post, we show how you can track and manage hybrid quantum-classical experiments with the Hybrid Jobs feature in Amazon Braket and Amazon SageMaker Experiments, used by ML developers on AWS to organize their experiments and trials.
Running Jupyter notebooks as hybrid jobs with Amazon Braket
Running Jupyter notebooks as Hybrid Jobs on Amazon Braket, you get performance and convenience of jobs, without modifying code. In this post, we show how you can scale up from exploratory notebook to repeatable and reliable experiments on different quantum hardware.
Announcing the Amazon Braket Challenge winners of the QHack 2023 Hackathon
Over 2800 developers from the PennyLane community got together during the virtual QHack event in February. Today we bring you some highlights and tell you about the winning projects.
Perfect imperfections: how AWS is innovating on diamond materials for quantum communication with Element Six
This post introduces key concepts of quantum communication showing how diamonds can be used in quantum networking nodes. And we’re announcing a new research collaboration with Element Six to explore ways to develop and improve synthetic diamond for quantum networking.
New open source tool expands access to lab-based quantum prototypes: Cloud Queue for Quantum Devices
Experimental physicists are vital to the future of quantum computing, sensing, and networking, laying the groundwork for new types of devices and enhancing the performance of existing technology. Their work, like all open science, can be accelerated through collaboration, but providing access to prototype hardware is challenging. The Cloud Queue for Quantum Devices project provides […]
Implementing a quantum-secured network in a metropolitan area
The AWS Center for Quantum Networking (CQN) has completed its first trial of quantum-secured communication in a customer environment. With a mission to address the fundamental scientific and engineering challenges to build quantum networks, we work with customers to evaluate the current state of the technology and its fit for cloud infrastructure. We’ve heard from […]
AWS releases open-source software Palace for cloud-based electromagnetics simulations of quantum computing hardware
Today, we are introducing Palace, for PArallel, LArge-scale Computational Electromagnetics, a parallel finite element code for full-wave electromagnetics simulations. Palace is used at the AWS Center for Quantum Computing to perform large-scale 3D simulations of complex electromagnetics models and enable the design of quantum computing hardware. We developed it with support for the scalability and […]
Optimization of robot trajectory planning with nature-inspired and hybrid quantum algorithms
Introduction The problem of robot motion planning is pervasive across many industry verticals, including (for example) automotive, manufacturing, and logistics. In the automotive industry, robotic path optimization problems can be found across the value chain in body shops, paint shops, assembly, and logistics, among others [1]. Typically, hundreds of robots operate in a single plant […]
Quantum error correction in the presence of biased noise
Have you ever heard about error correction? Without it, we could not obtain awe-inspiring pictures of Jupiter and its moons, conduct intelligible mobile phone calls, or have reliable computers. In this blog post, we explain the basic ideas behind error correction and how to apply it to quantum computing. In addition, we discuss how we […]
