Quantum Computing Enters the Atomic Realm – Optics & Photonics News
Atom-based architectures may have a scalability advantage over other platforms in the quest to build more powerful quantum processors. An experimental scheme demonstrated by researchers at Princeton and Yale universities is able to convert physical noise into errors that can be corrected more easily
‘Quantum-inspired’ laser computing is more effective than both supercomputing and quantum computing, startup claims – Livescience.com
Engineers have developed an optical computer, about the size of a desktop PC, that can purportedly execute complex artificial intelligence (AI) calculations in nanoseconds, rivaling the performance of both quantum and classical supercomputers. The computer, dubbed the LPU100, uses an array of 100 lasers to perform calculations through a process called laser interference, LightSolver representatives said in a March 19 statement. In this process, an optimization problem that requires solving is encoded onto physical obstacles on the lasers' paths using a device called a programmable spatial light modulator.
