China has built the world’s first dual-core quantum computer, a development that could “significantly enhance” efficiency, according to official media.
The breakthrough signalled that Chinese quantum computing technology was “entering a new stage”, the state-owned Science and Technology Daily reported this week.
While other quantum computers rely on high energy consumption and need to be run in temperatures close to absolute zero, the design of this computer uses neutral atoms – which consume less energy and make the machine easier to maintain.
