New quantum chip uses quasiparticles to link distant qubits
Original: New quantum chip taps into weird quasiparticles to get qubits to communicate over long distances
Researchers have unveiled a quantum chip that uses exotic quasiparticles to enable qubits to communicate over long distances, a persistent challenge in quantum computing since qubits typically interact only at very short ranges. The approach could help scale up quantum processors by allowing information to move reliably between distant parts of a machine, though details of the team's results and practical performance have not yet been widely reported.
Why now: Advances in linking distant qubits are rare breakthroughs that matter for the race to build scalable quantum computers.
