Superconducting Qubit Array Points the Way to Quantum Computers
Santa Barbara CA (SPX) Apr 28, 2014 - A fully functional quantum computer is one of the holy grails of physics. Unlike conventional computers, the quantum version uses qubits (quantum bits), which make direct use of the multiple states of quantum phenomena. When realized, a quantum computer will be millions of times more powerful at certain computations than today's supercomputers. A group of UC Santa Barbara physicists has mo ... more
