Quantum computing reached a new milestone after researchers from RMIT University were able to test a quantum processor that can route quantum information from various locations. This breakthrough may lead to a quantum data bus, an important piece in future quantum technology.
The quantum computing study was conducted by the research team from Italy's Institute for Photonics and Nanotechnologies of the CNR, China's South University of Science and Technology and Australia's Quantum Photonics Laboratory at RMIT. Together, the team showed for the first time the perfect state transfer of the entangled qubit or quantum bit on an integrated photonic device.
The RMIT results of this quantum computing study, according to Quantum Photonics Laboratory Director Dr Alberto Peruzzo, were highly awaited, after over a decade of international research in the particular field. Dr. Peruzzo also said that the perfect state transfer has become a promising process for data routing in the large-scale quantum computers, as reported by the Lifeboat.
