[size=14.6667px]I think they did a good job at NÚKIB, including those accompanying documents.Quantum physicsWhen we talk about semiconductor qubits, or qubits based on quantum dots, it is actually an electron and its properties that represent the given qubit. But you probably know from semiconductor theory that the electron's "partner" is a hole. And in this sense, it could serve the same purpose - that is, even as a qubit. [size=14.6667px]

[size=14.6667px]However, to excite the hole (for a qubit you need two different states, often the ground state and Chinese American Phone Number List[size=14.6667px] the first excited energy state), you need a THz laser, which is not a fully mastered technology yet. Now, researchers from the Ruhr-Universitaet-Bochum have gotten around it a bit with two . Importantly, they achieved a superposition between the ground and excited states for the hole. Which is one of the prerequisites for the future qubit.

[size=14.6667px] But there is still a lot of work to be done on it.Those of you who are more interested in physics will surely have noticed the news about the discovery of superconducting material at room temperature. Which is certainly great news, and if everything is confirmed and it can be produced in larger quantities, it will definitely be a huge leap, especially for the energy industry. What more could be desired than resistanceless transmission of electricity.
