Technology: Time Crystals May Prove Revolutionary to Designs of Quantum Computers

By Dick Weisinger

Time crystals are a new concept in physics that were originally theorized by Frank Wilczek just ten years ago. Time crystals is a lattice in time rather than space. They are continually evolving and their pattern of arrangement changes along…

Quantum Computing: Cosmic Rays May Be Major Source Of Qubit Errors

By Dick Weisinger

Software engineers may joke that any bug found in their software may be the result of malicious cosmic rays. While some research has identified cosmic rays as potentially being capable of flipping the state of bits in memory that could…

Quantum Networks: Using Entanglement to Create Unhackable Communication

By Dick Weisinger

Quantum Computing is not just about building lightening-fast qubit-based computer processors, it includes the transmission of qubit information between other quantum processors and across quantum networks. Quantum networking is facilitated by a phenomenon called entanglement. Entanglement occurs when the state…

Quantum Computing: Nanophotonics Emerges as Darkhorse Quantum Candidate

By Dick Weisinger

There are currently three roads to building a quantum computer. Google and IBM are betting on an approach that relies on superconducting qubits and quantum calculations. A second approach is to use trapped ion qubits which are more stable than…

Quantum Computing: Hype or Likely Reality?

By Dick Weisinger

Quantum computing have the potential to blow away the capabilities of today’s computers, but quantum computers are based on the quantum mechanics of particles that are very unstable, and because of that, researchers have been to-date only been able to…
