OPTICAL NETWORKS: Worlds Most Advanced Quantum Computer.(Brief Article)
BM Research (Tel: 408/268-3373, Website: www.ibm.com) has developed the worlds most advanced prototype quantum computer. These computers get their power by taking advantage of certain physics properties of atoms or nuclei that allow them to work together as quantum bits, or qubits, to be the computers processor and memory. By interacting with each other while being isolated from the external environment, theorists have predicted, and this new result confirms, that qubits could perform certain calculations exponentially faster than conventional computers.
The quantum computer contains five qubits, five fluorine atoms within a molecule specially designed so the fluorine nuclei spins can interact with each other as qubits. They can be programmed by radiofrequency pulses and be detected by nuclear ...
