Minifridge makes quantum computers last
Abstract:
Beryllium ions that keep their cool can store and transfer information, bringing powerful quantum computers a step closer to reality. Researchers combined all of the ingredients required for a functional quantum computer and found the parts could operate reliably, a study appearing online August 6 in Science reports.
"This is one of the most advanced systems that has ever been reported," comments Steven Olmschenk of the University of Maryland in College Park.
