Scientists put 'Schrödinger's cat' on a chip: New study demonstrates maturity of quantum computing
Engineers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) achieved a milestone in quantum computing by demonstrating Schrödinger's famous thought experiment using an antimony atom. The study, recently ...
The antimony cat is embedded inside a silicon quantum chip, similar to the ones we have in our computers and mobile phones, but adapted to give access to the quantum state of a single atom. The chip ...
You’ve probably heard about Schrödinger’s cat, which famously is trapped in a box with a kill mechanism that is activated if a radioactive atom decays, releasing radiation. The act of looking in the ...
