Summary
Quantum computing relies heavily on error correction to ensure practical calculations, but different companies have varying approaches. While most use logical qubits made from multiple hardware qubits, Nord Quantique has emerged with an innovative method using photons across two frequencies for error detection and storage. This approach could significantly reduce the required hardware by storing multiple states in a single device, marking progress toward more efficient quantum computing systems.
