Abstract:
Quantum computers have the potential to solve problems in logistics, physics, and medicine that the most powerful computers of today struggle with. For instance, they could help with the discovery of more efficient materials and new drugs to treat diseases with. However, one of the major challenges we currently face in the attempt to build a quantum computer is that the computing operations are faulty and prone to errors. In this talk, I will present how these operations, called quantum gates, are physically implemented, and what we are doing to improve them.
