ZuriQ is rewriting the rules of quantum computing by letting qubits fly
Ah, quantum computing… that moonshot technology full of potential, full of promise — and jam-packed with enough jargon to make the average person cry. Qubits, entanglement, superposition, trapped-ions, Schrödinger’s cat. These terms sound strange because the world of quantum mechanics — where things can exist in multiple states at once — is strange. And that’s why I want you to bear with me while I relay this latest piece of news from the buzzing quantum computing startup scene. ZuriQ, a spin-out from ETH Zurich in Switzerland, has raised $4.2mn to commercialise a new chip architecture that could dramatically increase the…This story continues at The Next Web
