Harnessing the Power of a Single Photon to Move Electrons. The Quantum Dynamics Unit at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology has demonstrated microwave influence
With improvements in both superconducting and semiconductor quantum chips, simulating a 50-qubit system using classical computers takes in the region of 16 petabytes of RAM. Chinese researchers have managed to simulate a 64-qubit system with greatly reduced hardware requirements. With such a reduction, realization of other quantum feats stands to be simulated while the world waits…because quantum is coming.
Strangeworks, the company not quantum mechanics, has raised $4,000,000 in venture capital, the company announced June 12. The funding will enable Strangeworks to create developer tools for finance, energy, aerospace, and pharmaceutical markets. Tools for enabling quantum computing are inherently different from classical (semiconductor) systems due to the intrinsic nature of the quantum and necessary architectures of the systems.
The media hype helps fundraising for research and the stories of doom and gloom abound throughout the mainstream media because it sells. That’s it. We do know this: Quantum computing at a practical level is a bit in the distance.
