Superconducting chips to scale up quantum computers and boost supercomputers
Superconducting processors could become a key ingredient for next generation of supercomputers. First, they could help tackling the major challenge of scaling up quantum computers. Second, they could speed up traditional supercomputers and remarkably cut their power consumption. A multidisciplinary research project led by VTT will tackle one of the main challenges of this solution: data transfer to and from low temperatures that are required for superconductivity.The processing power of a quantum computer is based on superconducting qubits operated at extremely low temperatures. Qubits are
