Vehicles routed with efficient use of qubits
CQT researchers and their collaborators have devised an approach to make efficient use of qubits for the ‘vehicle routing problem’. The team, led by CQT Principal Investigator Dimitris Angelakis, succeeded in going beyond the usual problem sizes possible on noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices. They formulated the problems based on realistic shipping scenarios provided by contacts at ExxonMobil, the multinational oil and gas corporation.

Singapore to collaborate with Quantinuum in quantum computing
Singapore research organisations and Quantinuum signed a Memorandum of Understanding on 23 July enabling access to Quantinuum’s advanced quantum computer, and to explore and collaborate on quantum computing use cases, focusing on computational biology. The organisations will also collaborate in hybrid computing and talent development.

Novel solid-state device offers single photons on demand
The group of CQT Principal Investigator Gao Weibo and their collaborators are the first to achieve near-unity quantum efficiency in 2D single photon emitters. They report their results in Nature Photonics. The team’s novel approach reached a quantum efficiency of 76.4% on average and more than 90% for some emitters, approaching what is known as ‘unity quantum efficiency’ of 100%.
