Boffins build quantum bridge out of diamonds

Boffins have built a quantum bridge out of diamonds.

Sandia researchers have demonstrated for the first time on a single chip all the components needed to create a quantum bridge by forcefully embedding two silicon atoms in a diamond matrix.

Sandia researcher Ryan Camacho said it was possible that the first useful quantum computer may be a connected cluster of small ones.

Distributing quantum information on a bridge, or network, could also enable novel forms of quantum sensing, since quantum correlations allow all the atoms in the network to behave as though they were one single atom.
