Device enables direct communication among multiple quantum processors
Boston MA (SPX) Mar 24, 2025 Quantum computers have the potential to solve complex problems that would be impossible for the most powerful classical supercomputer to crack. Just like a classical computer has separate, yet interconnected, components that must work together, such as a memory chip and a CPU on a motherboard, a quantum computer will need to communicate quantum information between multiple processors. Current architectures used to interconnect superconducting quantum processors are "point-to-point" in connec ... read more |
