India’s computing prowess is set for a quantum leap
The National Quantum Mission commits ₹6,003.65 crore over eight years to developing applications of quantum technology in computing, communications and cryptography. Four thematic hubs will be set up under NQM to research quantum computing, quantum communications, quantum sensing and metrology, and quantum materials and devices. It also looks to develop satellite-based secure communications between ground stations over 2,000 km apart, inter-city quantum key distribution over 2,000 km, and a multi-node quantum network. Even if all the targets are not realised, the NQM’s efforts should boost India’s grasp of quantum computing and the associated material sciences. Quantum computers also operate at -196 to -200 degrees Celsius, and even passing data through their circuits can generate enough heat to cause problems.
