U of C researchers make quantum breakthrough
From Crain's Chicago Business: University of Chicago researchers say they’ve made a breakthrough that might help bring quantum computing closer to reality. Researchers achieved a record time for memory, or “coherence,” in quantum bits, or qubits, of more than 5 seconds. Scientists are trying to harness quantum mechanics for the next generation of computing. One of the challenges is that particles maintain their quantum states, and their ability to store information, only briefly. Read More
