Quantikz: Essential Tool Elevating Quantum Circuit Visualization
Helpful tools lift the entire field. I’ve relied heavily on Quantikz by Alastair Kay to draw hundreds of quantum circuit diagrams over the years. It’s been my go-to for clean, publication-quality circuits in papers and lectures.
Hardware Upgrades Reshape Logical Error Scaling in Quantum Correction
One subtle aspect of quantum error correction, which personally intrigues me, is how hardware improvements can influence logical error scaling.
Quantum Metal Powers End-to-End Full-Chip Design
One of the most powerful aspects of Quantum Metal is that it goes beyond individual components. It enables full-chip design, from layout to analysis to fabrication-ready GDS export: https://t.co/Tf2kzgwgON https://t.co/J6dk4NjFKK
Quantum Community Conversations Growing More Integrated
A shift I’ve noticed in the quantum ecosystem over the past few years is how much more integrated our conversations have become.
Understanding What Logical Qubit Count Really Means
One of the trickiest numbers in quantum computing is “logical qubit count.” We often hear phrases such as “This algorithm requires 1,000 logical qubits,” but what is this number actually telling us?

Beyond Surface Code: Exploring Exotic Quantum Error‑Correction Zoo
I like to picture the space of error correction codes as a zoo with many exhibits. Many people are familiar with the surface code, it’s certainly the workhorse of our field. But there exist exotic codes that protect quantum information...
Intuitive Quantum Error Correction: Watrous & Qiskit Series
One of my favorite video series on quantum error correction comes from John Watrous and IBM Qiskit. This series does an excellent job of building intuition for how we protect fragile quantum information, beyond simply presenting the formalism.
Discover the Quantum Error Correction Zoo Resource
If you work on quantum error correction, be sure to check out The Error Correction Zoo: https://t.co/nLv7pmTq3A The Error Correction Zoo is an open, community-driven resource dedicated to compiling, organizing, and explaining known quantum error correction codes.
Quantum Metal Offers Designs and Tutorials for Quantum Devices
Did you know that Quantum Metal includes a repository of quantum device designs, along with tutorials on how they’re built? https://t.co/NZe3PLhXhR
Pauli Twirling + Probabilistic Cancellation Boost NISQ Fidelity
Back in 2023, I gave a series of lectures at the Boulder Summer School on then-recent techniques we developed for error mitigation in NISQ devices, specifically how to combine Pauli twirling with probabilistic error cancellation to improve fidelity in noisy...
Quantum Error Correction Defies Classical Intuition, Misconceptions Abound
One thing I didn’t fully appreciate early on while learning quantum error correction is just how far it can deviate from classical intuition. Along the way, I’ve run into some common misconceptions (which I still see often):
