Quantum Simulation
We help research teams explore how quantum computers could model molecules and materials, to speed up the discovery of new medicines, batteries and chemicals.
What is quantum simulation?
At the smallest scale, nature follows the rules of quantum physics. Molecules and materials behave in ways that are extremely hard for normal computers to calculate accurately.
Quantum computers follow those same rules, which makes them naturally suited to simulating molecules. In future, this could help design better medicines, battery materials, fertilisers and more, with fewer lab experiments.
Today, this is early-stage work. We help you identify promising problems and run small simulations to build understanding and readiness.
Using a normal computer to simulate a molecule is like describing a symphony using only written words. A quantum computer can “play the music” directly, because it speaks the same language as nature.
Why this is worth your attention
Faster discovery
Better simulations could reduce the number of costly lab experiments needed.
New materials
Improved models may help design better batteries, catalysts and other materials.
Get ready early
Teams who understand quantum simulation now will be best placed to benefit as hardware improves.
