A ‘Teleportation’ Breakthrough for Quantum Computing Is Here
1 min read
Summary
Quantum computing offers huge potential but scalability issues to make machines practical and durable must be addressed to realise its potential.
Scientists are exploring the possibility of creating more powerful machines through the phenomenon of “quantum teleportation” in which remote cores can be connected to each other using the transmission of information through light particles.
Recently, a team at the University of Oxford successfully trialled the quantum teleportation of an algorithm between two quantum processors, enabling the computers to work together to solve problems.
Such experiments could provide the potential for large-scale technology and the creation of a “quantum internet” in the future.
Quantum computing is already showing its potential to solve problems that are impossible for conventional supercomputers.
