Computing Quantum

Quantum computing is one of those technologies which will be widely put to use before we actually understand well how it's working - I'm hoping that the surprises that come as a result of using it without fulling comprehending how it works, will not be too nasty….

Giant step forward taken in generating optical qubits

The optical chip overcomes a number of obstacles in the development of quantum computers. A research team has demonstrated that on-chip quantum frequency combs can be used to simultaneously generate multiphoton entangled quantum bit states. It is the first chip capable of simultaneously generating multi-photon qubit states and two-photon entangled states on hundreds of frequency modes. The chip is scalable, compact, and compatible with existing technologies. Ref. Source 2q.

Protecting quantum computing networks against hacking threats

As we saw during the 2016 US election, protecting traditional computer systems, which use zeros and ones, from hackers is not a perfect science. Now consider the complex world of quantum computing, where bits of information can simultaneously hold multiple states beyond zero and one, and the potential threats become even trickier to tackle. Researchers have uncovered clues that could help administrators protect quantum computing networks from external attacks. Ref. Source 3p.
