Fujitsu has developed a working prototype of a diamond-spin quantum computer.
In a statement, the Japanese tech giant said the system was the “world’s first” system of its kind to incorporate tin-vacancy (SnV) centers into photonic integrated circuits.

The prototype can be operated at -271.6°C (-456.9°F), higher than the typical operating temperature of superconducting quantum computers, which is around -273.13°C (-459.6°F).
SnV centers are atomic-scale defects that occur when a tin atom is placed inside a diamond to leave a ‘vacancy.’ These custom flaws are known as ‘centers.’
