Chinese physicist aims for quantum computers

China Daily  

A Chinese scientist expects to lay a firm foundation that will foster the creation of a general-purpose quantum computer in 10 to 15 years. Pan Jianwei, a renowned Chinese quantum physicist, spoke on Tuesday during the Sixth World Laureates Association Forum in Shanghai, financial news magazine Yicai reported. "We will be able to achieve coherent manipulation of several hundred and then several thousand of qubits in five years," Pan said, using the term for quantum bits. He added that scientists would be able to manipulate several million of qubits in 10 to 15 years, thus laying a foundation for general-purpose quantum computers. Pan and his team recently created a quantum supercomputer prototype, Jiuzhang 3.0, that is able to solve a Gaussian boson sampling problem 10 quadrillion times faster than Frontier, the world's current most powerful supercomputer.

Two normal computer bits can exist in four possible states—00, 01, 10, or 11. A quantum computer allows two quantum bits to represent the four states at the same time due to ‘superposition’ and ‘entanglement’ properties, akin to running four computers. A quantum computer’s power grows exponentially with more qubits but it also induces errors, making the system like a …
