On the path to quantum computers: Ultra-strong interaction between light and matter realized
Friday, July 30, 2010 - 10:21
in Physics & Chemistry
Researchers around the world are working on the development of quantum computers that will be vastly superior to present-day computers. Here, the strong coupling of quantum bits with light quanta plays a pivotal role. Professor Rudolf Gross, a physicist at the Technische Universitaet Muenchen, Germany, and his team of researchers have now realized an extremely strong interaction between light and matter that may represent a first step in this direction.
