New quantum algorithm could simulate industry-changing materials

UK startup Phasecraft has developed an algorithm that brings the promise of quantum computers’ potential to reveal new materials and their properties much closer to realisation.  Due to their ability to simulate multiple complex quantum systems, quantum computers hold incredible potential in the field of material science. In turn, this could lead to technological leaps in fields such as energy, manufacturing, and medicine.  There is still a long way to go for quantum computers to scale and become stable enough to satisfactorily perform these functions on their own. However, quantum computers and classical computers can work together, using algorithms that…
