Another Quantum teleportation achieved — this time between two computer chips
The phenomenon which Einstein called “spooky action at a distance” may revolutionize the way how we communicate in the future
We have taken some huge strides in the field of Quantum computing in the last couple of years — from Google & IBM developing the next-gen quantum computers to players like Microsoft & Amazon offering Cloud-based quantum computing services to Chinese scientists achieving quantum teleportation between two suborbital satellites and Earth.
There is still this argument that quantum computing is a very expensive endeavor since it requires exotic materials like superconducting metals. This theory was recently challenged as well in a groundbreaking discovery by a team of researchers at the University of Chicago, where they were able to produce quantum states utilizing everyday electronics.
What makes quantum computing so intriguing and having such futuristic applications is its ability to process information using Qubits — existing simultaneously in both states 0 and 1, also exhibiting the properties of both states. This gives rise to the phenomenon of entanglement — a process where two fundamental particles are joined together in such a way that nothing else can…
