Revolutionary 8-Photon Chip Miniaturizes Quantum Computing
South Korean researchers at the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) have developed a photonic quantum circuit chip capable of controlling up to eight photons, marking a significant advancement in quantum computing. This chip enables complex quantum phenomena like multipartite entanglement and has achieved record-breaking 6-qubit entanglement. The research, in collaboration with KAIST and the University of Trento, aims to further scale up to 16 and 32-qubit chips, contributing to the development of universal quantum computers.
