Multidimensional photos bring advances in quantum computing
A new study conducted by Pro. Yaron Bromberg and Dr. Oded Lib of the Institute of Chemistry present a significant advance in the field of quantum computing based on a photonic-measurement approach.
The innovative new method, which uses multidimensional spatial coding to generate large cluster states with greater efficiency, supports the development of faster quantum computers that are also more resource-efficient.
