UNSW Sydney-led research paves the way for large silicon-based quantum processors for real-world manufacturing and application. Images and media kit download Australian researchers have proven that near error-free quantum computing is possible, paving the way to build silicon-based quantum devices compatible with current semiconductor manufacturing technology.
An atomic array in silicon paves the way for large scale devices Video and images: direct link A University of Melbourne led team have perfected a technique for embedding single atoms in a silicon wafer one-by-one. Their technology offers the potential to make quantum computers using the same methods that have given us cheap and…
Andrea Morello People have speculated about the potential of quantum computers for decades—how they would make child’s play of constructing and testing new drugs, searching through huge amounts of data and ensuring that information was fundamentally secure. But it all seemed like science fiction. No-one really knew how to build one, despite lots of clever…
Posted on behalf of the University of New South Wales A research team led by Australian engineers has created the first working quantum bit based on a single atom in silicon, opening the way to ultra-powerful quantum computers of the future. In a landmark paper published today in the journal Nature, the team describes how…
