"The road to quantum computing has been a cold one -- just above
absolute zero, in fact. That's the temperature at which most
quantum computers must operate to function.
In a pioneering milestone, the Pawsey Supercomputing Research
Centre we operate in Perth is now home to the first
room-temperature quantum computer in a supercomputing facility,
anywhere in the world.
Developed by German-Australian start-up Quantum Brilliance, the
two-qubit diamond quantum 'accelerator' uses synthetic diamonds and
runs at room temperature in any environment. Bits, in traditional
computing, refer only to binary values (0s and 1s); a quantum bit,
or qubit, is not either but both values simultaneously." ...
