(PhysOrg.com) -- Decoherence can be metaphorically seen as a quantum fall from grace: When quantum bits, or qubits, are in superposition – such as a single qubit simultaneously having both 1 and 0 values – they’re ...
(PhysOrg.com) -- Researchers at D-Wave Systems have carried out a calculation involving 84 qubits on an experimental quantum computer, giving some credence to the plausibility of true quantum computers being created that ...
Rice University physicists have created a tiny "electron superhighway" that could one day be useful for building a quantum computer, a new type of computer that will use quantum particles in place of the digital transistors ...
