A new photonic chip that works on light rather than electricity has been built by an international research team, paving the way for the production of ultra-fast quantum computers with capabilities far beyond today’s devices.
Future quantum computers will, for example, be able to pull important information out of the biggest databases almost instantaneously. As the amount of electronic data stored worldwide grows exponentially, the technology will make it easier for people to search with precision for what they want.
Quantum computing will prove every bit as revolutionary as the development of the transistor and integrated circuit were. And five years is not a long time when it comes to something as significant as this. To read the rest of the article, click here.
