Superfast computers a step closer as a silicon chip's quantum capabilities are improved

more »

Research has demonstrated laser control of quantum states in an ordinary silicon wafer and observation of these states via a conventional electrical measurement. The findings—published in the journal Nature Communications by a UK-Dutch-Swiss team from the University of Surrey, University College London, Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, the Radboud University in Nijmegen, and ETH Zürich/EPF Lausanne/Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland—mark a crucial step towards future quantum technologies, which promise to deliver secure communications and superfast computing applications.
