Computing: Neuer Weg zum Superrechner: Fujitsu entwickelt vernetzte, leichter kühlbare Quantencomputer
Der japanische Tech-Konzern setzt im Wettbewerb mit IBM und Google auf eine Technik, die auch deutsche Start-ups nutzen. Sie soll den Durchbruch zu Hochleistungs-Quantenrechnern bringen.
Atsugi, Japan - In a modest space illuminated by neon lights, Japanese electronics conglomerate Fujitsu unveiled what it claims is the world's first functional prototype of a module for a new type of quantum computer. The development center, nestled in the hills of Atsugi, houses a cube-shaped refrigerator and several control units.
Fujitsu, in collaboration with the Technical University of Delft in the Netherlands, has adopted a unique approach to quantum computing. The company has turned to the so-called Diamond-Spin-Technique, utilizing trapped atoms within diamonds. This innovative method could potentially pave the way to more rapid advancements in quantum computing, surpassing the previous limitations.
The ultimate goal is to create fully developed systems that can solve complex problems and break encryption within minutes, a task that would currently take classical supercomputers days, months, or even decades to accomplish. However, the construction of such advanced systems has historically been too intricate to achieve significant computational capacity quickly.
