>> Engineers make critical advance in quantum computer design
So they thought until another group gave it a looksee.
But look at how the tech they have now is being used? Computers give evil people so much power the more powerful they become. Everything is going to be tracked. You move yoru finger and they are going to track it. And the state of robotics is going to be “Terminator” level before you know it.
I don’t care about all this hi tec crap. I wish I could travel back in time to when life was worth living.
How can anyone at UNSW Syndey be doing ANYTHING? I thought they were in RONA LOCKDOWN, with jackbooted thugs going door to door administering BeastJabs?
I’m not going to quibble about all those qubits.
“Up until this point, controlling electron spin qubits relied on us delivering microwave magnetic fields by putting a current through a wire right beside the qubit,” Dr. Pla says.
“But then we had an idea. If we attach the electrodes to the qubits nether regions they might be more compliant! It worked.”
Of course. They will solve climate change with better computer models
Bkmk
“ the team looked at the feasibility of generating a magnetic field from above the chip that could manipulate all of the qubits simultaneously.”
~~~~~~~
That’s how we moved the bubbles around in IBM’s bubble memory module design back in the 80’s.
“First we removed the wire next to the qubits and then came up with a novel way to deliver microwave-frequency magnetic control fields across the entire system. So in principle, we could deliver control fields to up to four million qubits,” says Dr. Pla.
Dr. Pla and the team introduced a new component directly above the silicon chip—a crystal prism called a dielectric resonator. When microwaves are directed into the resonator, it focuses the wavelength of the microwaves down to a much smaller size.

This more and more sounds like stuff straight out of Star Trek. I barely understand solid state transistors. I have a really tough time wrapping my head around this stuff.
That this stuff only works, currently, at -270°C makes it not quite ready for the next-gen iPhone, but interesting stuff.
But can it play Crysis?
