Our Daily Quantum Update breaks down recent news into categories to make it easier for you to find the industry developments in which you are most interested. These articles don’t always explain what the core technology is or how it works. Luckily for us, there are some great resources on the web that do.

In each installment of this type of post, we’ve listed some of the best explainer pieces by authors like Russ Fein and Martin Ivezic, as well as by companies developing the technologies. For the latter group, we’ve tried to pick content rich in understandable technical signals and low in marketing noise.

We have not included deep research articles in these collections, though there might be a good survey article that sneaks in. We’ve tried to include content for beginners, enthusiasts, marketers, investors, policy makers, and, really, anyone who wants to learn more about the topic. Scan the listing and start with something that appeals to you. Jump around until you find something that is at your level of understanding and interest. The newest articles are at the top, with older ones appearing lower as you go.

By our most recent count, there are 97 companies that build quantum computing processor units, and 31 of those use the superconducting modality. The best-known are probably IBM and Google, but clearly, many others believe it is a winning choice.

The modality is not without its faults. Speaking generally, the qubits are very fast, but the coherence time, the time you have to do useful things, is relatively short. Many implementations have a reputation for being very noisy, meaning that over time, as you perform operations, data is lost due to errors creeping in. Could this be why Google decided to also pursue neutral-atom qubits?

WARNING: Use of AI ahead. Run away now if you wish.

Ok, I admit it. I should have been doing something else, but I was wondering if Anthropic Claude could help generate the usual boring, overused statements about the commercialization of quantum computing. With some nudging and iteration from me, here are some good ones.

Feel free to use them if you don’t have anything else to say. Be sure to credit Claude and check the veracity of each.

Our Daily Quantum Update breaks down recent news into categories to make it easier for you to find the industry developments in which you are most interested. These articles don’t always explain what the core technology is or how it works. Luckily for us, there are some great resources on the web that do.

In each installment of this type of post, we’ve listed some of the best explainer pieces by authors like Russ Fein and Martin Ivezic, as well as by companies developing the technologies. For the latter group, we’ve tried to pick content rich in understandable technical signals and low in marketing noise.

We have not included deep research articles in these collections, though there might be a good survey article that sneaks in. We’ve tried to include content for beginners, enthusiasts, marketers, investors, policy makers, and, really, anyone who wants to learn more about the topic. Scan the listing and start with something that appeals to you. Jump around until you find something that is at your level of understanding and interest. The newest articles are at the top, with older ones appearing lower as you go.

Let’s get going with the neutral atom modality for quantum physical qubits. Neutral (or cold) atoms can also be used in quantum sensing devices such as accelerometers, gyroscopes, gravimeters, and radio-frequency detectors.

For extra credit, look up Johannes Rydberg and locate rubidium and cesium in a periodic table.

• Neutral atom quantum computer
  A type of quantum computer built using Rydberg atoms, where qubits are encoded in energy levels of neutral atoms trapped and operated via lasers, leveraging the Rydberg blockade for two-qubit gates.

  First in a series focused on various quantum modalities, and the players including an “Alpha Dog” and a “Breakout Contender” for each modality.

  Published or Last Updated: March 2026
  Author: Russ Fein

• Quantum Computing Modalities: Ion Trap and Neutral Atom MBQC
  Ion Trap and Neutral Atom implementations of MBQC leverage two leading “matter-qubit” platforms – trapped ions and ultracold neutral atoms – to realize measurement-based quantum computation.

  Published or Last Updated: September 2025
  Author: Marin Ivezic
  Source: PostQuantum.com

• Technology | Atom Computing
  Atom Computing builds quantum computers using optically-trapped neutral atoms to create arrays of nuclear-spin qubits, cooled, trapped, and controlled wirelessly using lasers.

  Published or Last Updated: June 2025

• Quantum Computing Modalities
  A Qubit Primer Re-Revisited in December 2024 — a summary of different quantum computing modalities including relative strengths and weaknesses.

  Published or Last Updated: December 2024
  Author: Russ Fein

• The Best Qubits for Quantum Computing Might Just Be Atoms
  In the search for the most scalable hardware to use for quantum computers, qubits made of individual atoms are having a breakout moment.

  Published or Last Updated: March 2024
  Author: Philip Ball
  Source: Quanta Magazine

• Potential and challenges of quantum computing hardware technologies
  Many qubit technologies could shape the future of quantum computing hardware. Here, we take a closer look at five of the major qubit technologies: photonic networks, superconducting circuits, spin qubits, neutral atoms, and trapped ions.
