Training (Developing) Quantum Computing Workers

“If you want the masses to start using quantum computers, you have to teach them what the hell they do.” There aren’t enough of “them” to train, either. From industry to academia and now into government, here’s a brief discussion regarding quantum computing jobs in each of these sectors.

Intel’s Direction

It is no secret Intel is all-in for producing quantum computers. They have the infrastructure to mass produce computer chips. Now, if they could get a quantum chip to fit into this production line what else could there be?

Superconducting Qubit Transferred Via Coaxial Cable

Physicists at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, Switzerland, have successfully transferred two qubits via coaxial cable. Using a microwave photon resonator to transmit the qubit state, the quantum state was successfully transmitted to a second qubit through the cable; a distance of about 2 meters. With a transmission success rate of 80 percent, the process was repeatable upwards of 50,000 times per second. The team’s next goal is to enable entanglement swapping – using qubits to transmit and receive. If successful, the technique could open up avenues for larger quantum computers.
