Building universal quantum computers with self-correcting cat-qubit technology
The project aims to develop self-correcting Schrödinger cat qubits to create fault-tolerant quantum computers, positioning Europe as a leader in the quantum revolution.
Projectdetails
Introduction
Quantum computers could completely revolutionise the world. A successful quantum computer could perform simulations that would take billions of years on the most powerful supercomputer in a matter of minutes.
Current Challenges
But first, there is a critical challenge to overcome. Current quantum computers are error-prone and incapable of executing complex algorithms reliably. Eliminating these quantum errors is the main challenge in quantum computing.
Innovation in Quantum Hardware
We have invented a new type of self-correcting quantum hardware—the Schrödinger cat quantum bits (qubits). Using self-correction, we will be able to build the world's first fault-tolerant commercial quantum computers a decade earlier than our competitors.
Strategic Importance
Quantum computing is a technology of the highest strategic importance. Today, American tech giants are ahead, but who will lead the quantum revolution is not decided yet.
Future Prospects
With self-correcting cat qubits, we can take the lead and ensure the next generation of information technologies are European.
