Engineers discover a new way to control atomic nuclei as “qubits”
In principle, quantum-based devices such as computers and sensors could vastly outperform conventional digital technologies for carrying out many complex tasks. But developing such devices in practice has been a challenging problem despite great investments by tech companies as well as academic and government labs.
Today’s biggest quantum computers still only have a few hundred “qubits,” the quantum equivalents of digital bits.
Now, researchers at MIT have proposed a new approach to making qubits and controlling them to read and write data.
