Breakthrough brings fiber optics to quantum computing, improving efficiency and reducing heat generation | It promises much better cooling
Quantum computers run at temperatures just a hair above absolute zero. And keeping them humming along at these temps requires massive, multi-million dollar cooling systems known as...
Researchers at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) have made a breakthrough that could significantly reduce the cost of these computers – by removing one of the main sources of heat. With millions of signals constantly pinging the qubits, that heat builds up fast, forcing bigger and pricier cooling rigs. Georg Arnold, co-lead author of the study published in Nature Physics, said that the new approach might allow them to increase the number of usable qubits so they become useful for real computation.
