Running Shor’s Algorithm on Logical Qubits - with Peter Noell of Infleqtion


Listen Later

For the first time, Shor’s Algorithm is running on logical qubits! The team at Infleqtion used their Sqale neutral atom processor to accomplish the feat. While the setup only uses six logical qubits, and we’re still in the range of factoring 15 or 21, this is both a proof of concept and a proof of the need for post-quantum cryptography (PQC). We discuss the aggressive 2.5:1 physical-to-logical ratio of Sqale, which could lead to hundreds of logical qubits by 2028. Also, find out why Shor’s Algorithm could surprisingly end up being one of the first killer apps for quantum computing, rather than a later use case. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a wide-ranging chat with Peter Noell from Infleqtion.
