Neither classical nor quantum: This computer lets light solve complex calculations
For decades, the solution to harder problems has been ‘build a bigger computer’— but ...
Published in Nature, the study details the first large-scale demonstration of a photonic Ising machine operating without the ...
McGill and Queen's University researchers have built an improved version of a computer that uses light to solve extremely hard problems more quickly ...
The central selling point of qubit-based quantum processors is that they can supposedly solve certain types of tasks much faster than a classical computer. This comes however with the major ...
