Enabling quantum computing
The Centre for Quantum Technology research into quantum circuits and superconductors is developing technologies that can enable quantum computing.
Enabling quantum computing
Classical computers use bits. This means using ones and zeros as fundamental units to process digital data. Quantum computers use qubits. Qubits utilise quantum states to be both one and zero at the same time.
The architecture of quantum computers combined with specialist algorithms have the power to transform computing efficiency to address problems in disciplines spanning fundamental science, pharmaceuticals, finance, logistics and AI.
We are developing the building blocks for these new computers: from superconducting circuits to arrays of cold atoms/ions on which future computers will be based.
