Quantum computers get closer
Abstract:
Researchers claim that they are closer to creating quantum computer chips using ordinary technology.
Manufacturing techniques required to make quantum devices so far have been a bit too exotic for your average PC.
However now boffins at Ohio State University have discovered a way to make quantum devices using technology common to the chipmaking industry today.
They say that one day it will enable faster, low-power computer chips.
