The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded Yale University a $1.0 million Cooperative Agreement under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) on June 15, 2026, with completion targeted for May 31, 2028. The ERASE (Erasure Qubits and Dynamic Circuits for Quantum Advantage) project will establish a National Quantum Virtual Laboratory (NQVL) testbed to advance fault-tolerant quantum computing by developing an innovative quantum computing platform based on erasure flag qubits that detect and localize errors. The primary deliverable is novel high-performance superconducting hardware utilizing dual-resonator logical encoding to convert photon loss errors into flagged erasure errors, which can then be efficiently corrected through concatenated error detection codes. Under this collaborative agreement between academia and industry, Yale will provide researchers with advanced tools for quantum algorithm development, software system improvements, and experimentation with quantum error correction techniques. The project will enable creation of new quantum algorithms employing mid-circuit measurements and dynamic circuit branching based on measurement outcomes. Additionally, ERASE incorporates educational workforce development initiatives in partnership with Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) to cultivate skilled quantum researchers and build a vibrant national quantum research ecosystem capable of achieving quantum advantage in computation and simulation.Federal Cooperative Agreement Summary
