Details

Quantum computers, which promise enormous computational power for certain specialized tasks, are being developed by universities, government labs, and technology companies worldwide. I will briefly review the current status of quantum computers, their demanding requirements for error correction, and the current attempts at prethreshold (non-error- corrected) quantum computation. I will also highlight areas where I think there will be significant future opportunities for physicists and materials scientists.
