Stable quantum bits can be made from complex molecules

Saturday, November 12, 2016 - 03:04 in Physics & Chemistry

Quantum computing is about to get more complex. Researchers have evidence that large molecules made of nickel and chromium can store and process information in the same way bytes do for digital computers. The researchers present algorithms proving it's possible to use supramolecular chemistry to connect "qubits," the basic units for quantum information processing. This approach would generate several kinds of stable qubits that could be connected together into structures called "two-qubit gates."
