]]> Stephanie Simmons, co-founder and Chief Quantum Officer of Photonic, was a panelist on the June 17, 2025 episode of Physics World Live. The panel discussed advances in quantum physics that are driving technological developments and creating a whole new ecosystem of “quantum 2.0” businesses, ventures that harness quantum phenomena such as entanglement and superposition.

To mark the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, this Physics World Live event explored how these technological advances are working in reverse: enabling physicists to perform previously impossible experiments that could lead to breakthroughs in the fundamentals of quantum theory.

Panelists

Stephanie Simmons, Chief Quantum Officer at Photonic and co-chair of Canada’s Quantum Advisory Council

Artur Ekert, professor of quantum physics and cryptography at the University of Oxford

Elise Crull, associate professor of philosophy, City College of New York

]]> Quantum Low Density Parity Check (QLDPC) Error Correction Codes have been known as a promising alternative to the surface code for 20 years, but until recently no one had been able to use them to efficiently perform quantum logic. That all changed when Photonic introduced SHYPS codes, a patent pending family of QLDPC codes that can run quantum algorithms using up to 20x fewer physical qubits compared to traditional approaches.

Watch this 60 minute technical talk where Alex Malcolm and Andrew Glaudell, two of the authors, of Photonic’s recent pre-print paper “Computing Efficiently In QLDPC Codes” covered:

  • An overview of SHYPS QLDPC codes
  • Examples of how logical gates are derived
  • An explanation of the simulations completed
  • Architecture and connectivity requirements

Speakers

Dr. Alexander Malcolm is a Senior Quantum Error Correction Researcher at Photonic Inc. He has a PhD in Pure Mathematics from Imperial College London.

Dr. Andrew Glaudell is a Staff Quantum Error Correction Researcher and Fault Tolerance Team Lead at Photonic Inc. He has a PhD in Physics from the University of Maryland.
