Photonic Chip will develop ultrafast computers

An international group of researchers have developed a photonic chip - powered by light rather than electricity - which opens the way for the production of ultra-fast quantum computers with greater capacity than conventional.Quantum computers of the future will be able to process such information from large databases almost instantly and the Photonic Chip for ultrafast computers. .
The discovery, presented at the British Festival of Science and published this week in the journal "Science", assumes that the data can be processed using the seemingly illogical rules of quantum physics that are based on the assumption that the subatomic particles can be in several places at once and the ultrafast computers..

Photonic Chip for ultrafast computers

This property will enable a new generation of computers to process information in quantities and at a rate much higher than they are capable of current supercomputers.The usefulness of this chip is that its particles are able to do several things at once, unlike the "bits" of traditional computer and the ultrafast computerss.

The use of quantum particles, called "qubits" can process data at a scale that would be unthinkable with conventional electronic systems and the ultrafast computers.Although it is still necessary to overcome some technical barriers, researchers at the University of Bristol (United Kingdom), that of Tohuku in Japan, the Weizmann Institute (Israel) and the University of Twente (Netherlands) claim to have successfully completed "a major barrier "to develop a chip capable of operating at a temperature and standard-pressure level, without requiring extreme conditions previous attempts and the ultrafast computers.

Ultrafast computers

The British director of the Center for Photonics Quantum, Jeremy O'Brien, explained that although many people believed that it could develop a quantum computer to within at least 25 years, this advance could reduce waiting about five years.The wide range of possibilities offered by this technology has led to governments, corporations and intelligence services in recent years invested hundreds of millions of dollars in this sector with the confidence that quantum electronics will be the basis of the technology industry of the twenty-first century information.
