1、Quantum simulationInsight report June 2023 epo.orgQUANTUM SIMULATION INSIGHT REPORTepo.org|02Executive summaryThis report is the eighth patent insight report published by the European Patent Office(EPO),and the fourth report related to quantum technologies.1 Its objective is to provide an overview o
2、f important patent trends in the field of second-generation(2G)quantum simulation technologies.The report summarises the results of patent analyses which were carried out jointly by subject-matter specialists and patent knowledge experts at the EPO.For this study,publicly available patent informatio
3、n drawn from the EPOs databases of worldwide patent data was analysed.Patent information constitutes a very rich source of technical information on inventions for which patent protection was sought based on the commercial expectations of the applicants.Patent information often includes technical and
4、 other information that is not available from any other source.This report may be helpful as a source of information on quantum simulation.The methodology on which this report is based can be used freely,i.e.everyone can adapt the chosen search and analysis approach to their needs,for example to fol
5、low trends and developments in other established or emerging technical fields.While the number of inventions in the field of 2G quantum simulation is still rather low,it has increased dynamically over the last decade at a rate which is well above the increase generally observed across all fields of
6、technology.The figure on the next page shows the number of so-called International Patent Families relating to 2G quantum simulation technologies and the number in all technical fields by the year when the underlying inventions were made publicly available for the first time and could influence the
