Over 1,000 Controllable Atomic Qubits Achieved
In a research article just published on the arXiv preprint server the research team from TU Darmstadt in Germany reports on the world’s first successful experiment to realise a quantum-processing architecture that contains more than 1,000 atomic qubits in one single plane. The researchers used a novel method of “quantum bit supercharging” that enabled researchers to overcome the limitations imposed by the…
