Physicists in China have built two quantum computers with performance speeds which exceed those of their Western competitors, the South China Morning Post reported on Tuesday.
They have produced a superconducting machine and an even faster type which uses light photons to achieve never-before seen results, the paper said, adding that Jiuzhang 2 can calculate in one millisecond a task that would take the world’s fastest conventional computer 30 trillion years.
The team’s findings are detailed in two papers published in the peer-reviewed Physical Review Letters and Science Bulletin.
