‘Tiny particles with big promise’: The atomic key to TU/e’s quantum computers

Description

Three researchers reflect on the significance of TU/e’s quantum computers, how they work, and what’s coming next in quantum computing. 

Computers rule the world. We use them in our offices, our factories, and in our smartphones. In research and industry, supercomputers help design new medicines or create accurate weather reports, but they can’t do everything. Our so-called classical computers are set to meet their ‘quantum match’ sooner rather than later, leading to advancements in how we design new drugs or how we secure and share our data in the future. The quantum computing age is here and growing. At TU/e, we are playing a leading role in welcoming the age of quantum.
