Towards a Quantum Circuit

Considerable step?

Huge Step Forward in Quantum Computing Announced: The First-Ever Quantum Circuit

By ScienceAlert, June 23, 2022

The final quantum chip contained 10 quantum dots, each made up of a small number of phosphorus atoms.

Australian scientists have created the world's first-ever quantum computer circuit – one that contains all the essential components found on a classical computer chip but at the quantum scale.

The landmark discovery, published in Nature today, was nine years in the making. 

"This is the most exciting discovery of my career," senior author and quantum physicist Michelle Simmons, founder of Silicon Quantum Computing and director of the Center of Excellence for Quantum Computation and Communication Technology at UNSW told ScienceAlert.

Not only did Simmons and her team create what's essentially a functional quantum processor, they also successfully tested it by modeling a small molecule in which each atom has multiple quantum states – something a traditional computer would struggle to achieve.  .... '
