Engineers from China presented a new development: 2 quantum computers, which are 10 million times more powerful than all previous computers. The innovative devices were created by 2 research teams collaborating with the laboratory of physical sciences at the China University of Science. The main task of computers is to calculate the output probabilities in quantum computing.
In addition, in the role of input data, devices are capable of simultaneously receiving several quantum states. This means that computers analyze dozens of possible values at once. It is worth noting that in traditional computers, bits only support one or zero probable values. The advantage of quantum computers (the ability to perform a huge number of parallel calculations) has been confirmed by a number of sampling studies.
Engineers said that the basis of one of the devices, which was named Zuchongzhi 2.1, are 66 superconducting qubits. The qubits are interconnected by many configurable taps. Thanks to this, Zuchongzhi 2.1 is millions of times more powerful than Google's Sycamore.
With calculations, on which a standard computer will work for 8 years, Zuchongzhi 2.1 will cope in just one hour. But there is one peculiarity: an innovative system for performing mathematical operations must be in an extremely low temperature.
A second computer called Jiuzhang 2 does the work on photons. To analyze the signals, he needs Guass bosons. Due to this, the device is ahead of any supercomputers, because it instantly operates with millions of tasks simultaneously.
