Holey Quantum Computers! Electron Holes Could Help Build Faster, Larger Quantum Computers
A recent study indicates that holes may be the solution to the trade-off between operational speed and coherence in quantum computers. Researchers add it could help scale up qubits to make a mini-quantum computer. Quantum computers are predicted to be much more powerful and functional than today’s ‘classical’ computers. One way to make a quantum […]
Team Preparing For The Quantum Era With RaaS
Image by Gerd Altmann from Pixabay JoS Quantum When the time comes — and it’s not very far into the future — for quantum computers to actually be useful at something, the first area where we will see their proven efficacy is probably going to be in the financial, insurance and energy sectors. Though it’s not a given, the chances […]
Seeqc’s Naples Team Reports Achieving Quantum Computing Milestone, Announces Grants
