Chapter 353: One-Year Goal
"This is what we developed, the first optical quantum computer in Huaxia. Zhu Huagui proudly introduced to Lu Zixin and others.
In front of them, there is a large unit, which looks like a part of a complex and sophisticated industrial equipment, but such a large thing is just the CPU of an optical quantum computer.
The overall optical quantum computer is even larger.
"Optical quantum computers use photons' degrees of polarization freedom and angular momentum as qubits, and now we can achieve ten entangled photons in the world, and we have been at the world's leading level. Zhu Hwa-gyu said.
"Amazing!" Lu Zixin praised.
"Then how about its performance?" Lu Zixin asked curiously, since it is the world's leading optical quantum computer, the performance is already not bad, right?
Zhu Hwa-gyu said: "The sampling speed of our optical quantum computer is 100 times faster than that of the world's first electron tube computer and transistor computer! Only a few companies in the world can do it!"
"Awesome!" Lu Zixin gave a thumbs up, it was already very powerful to be able to do this. Each of their achievements is obtained by their own hard work, and the hardships may only be known to them.
In addition to optical quantum computers, there are also superconducting quantum computers, although both are called quantum computers, but their qubits, that is, computing units, are implemented in completely different ways.
One is an optical qubit and the other is a superconducting qubit, both of which are very different from the theoretical basis to the way of implementation.
"Our superconducting quantum computer can also manipulate ten superconducting qubits, and we are currently manipulating twenty superconducting qubits. Zhu Hwa-gyu said, "Quantum computers, as long as they can manipulate 50 microscopic particles, can surpass the world's fastest supercomputer!"
Lu Zixin secretly thought to himself in his heart, at this rate, there will be no shadow of a small quantum computer in ten or eight years.
At present, Intel and other companies have announced that they can make quantum computers that can manipulate 45 microscopic particles, and have also announced 17-bit quantum computing chips......
This is only the information they have already made public, and Lu Zixin believes that in the technical data they have not released, they must have achieved a higher level. Therefore, Hongxin must overtake quickly, and make it before they can make universal quantum chips and large-scale commercial quantum computers, so as to break the monopoly of the computer industry and walk in the forefront of the world.
During the visit, Dai Liangcai had been asking various questions and recording them with smart glasses, and he was already preparing for Hongxin's quantum computer research institute.
In this research institute, in addition to the research part of optical quantum computer and superconducting quantum computer, there are also research parts such as quantum information transmission and quantum information network.
These are mainly developed by the Coriyun team and are not allowed to be visited.
In the era of cloud data, every technology company is developing its own cloud data technology, and Keli Cloud is particularly valued by Keli Group.
According to the news they announced last time, they will invest more than 100 billion Huaxia coins in quantum information, quantum computers, cloud data, etc. within three years!
Even the National Academy of Sciences attaches great importance to this scale of investment.
Out of the gate of the institute, Dai Liangcai sighed with emotion. said: "I can't imagine that their research in the quantum field has been so far ahead of us, especially the quantum information network of the Corey Group, if they are allowed to do it, the operation of the Internet will have to be rewritten." ”
For the sake of the quantum information network, they have launched several quantum information satellites on an experimental basis. Although they will not be able to see any great effect in a short period of time, as long as their technology is perfected, they will be better than Hongxin's current small information satellites.
"Dai Lao, how long do you think we can surpass them?" Lu Zixin asked.
"This ......" Dai Liangcai hesitated a little, and said after a while: "We can reach the same level as them in two years, which is already very good." Based on Hongxin, it will take one or two years to build a quantum computer, realize the control of ten qubits, achieve 20 or 25 in three years, and catch up with the international level in five years. ”
"Five years? too long. Lu Zixin said, "One year, make quantum computing chips, two years, make commercial quantum computers!"
"One year?" Dai Liangcai shook his head directly, "This time is too short, unless someone teaches us, otherwise we can explore it on our own, a year is really too short!"
"One year is enough!"
"Make a quantum computing chip in one year, and make a commercial quantum computer in two years?" hahaha!" Lu Zixin finished speaking, and someone behind him laughed.
It was an old man in a plaid shirt, older than Dai Liangcai, with deep wrinkles on his forehead and pale hair.
"It's good to have goals, young man, but don't talk big about it!" said the man.
"Principal Pan?" Dai Liang saw him and called out in surprise, "Old Pan, why are you here?"
There was respect in his tone, and at the same time he introduced to Lu Zixin in a low voice: "This old Mr. Pan Qiwen once served as the president of Huaxia University of Science and Technology, and has made many major scientific research achievements. He is now one of the patriarchs of the National Academy of Sciences and is internationally famous. Especially in the quantum field, the Magic Capital Quantum Computer Research Institute was established under his initiative. ”
Such a character is already the group of people who stand at the top of human wisdom, Lu Zixin was in awe, and hurriedly greeted: "Hello old man." ”
"Haha, hello. Pan Qiwen smiled kindly and said, "Xiao Zhu told me that Hongxin Group wants to invest in the research and development of quantum chips and quantum computers. I was attending an academic conference in Canada, and as soon as I heard this, I rushed back and just in time. ”
"The old gentleman has worked hard. Lu Zixin said, "If you don't rest first, we won't be in a hurry to leave." ”
"No, no. Pan Qiwen waved his hand and said, "Since I met at the door, let's talk about it now!"
In a quiet room, Lu Zixin and the other three discussed while drinking tea.
Pan Qiwen said unconfirmed: "Xiao Lu, let me ask a bad question, do you really want to make quantum chips?
"Of course we have to do it!" Lu Zixin said seriously, "Old Pan, I can guarantee that our next energy will be put into this area." Quantum computers, cloud data, artificial intelligence, these are the development direction of our company in the next ten years! That is, we will not waver in investing tens of billions or hundreds of billions!"
"Okay!" Pan Qiwen shouted hello and said: "We are also scared of the pit! Over the years, the state has been appropriating subsidies, but many enterprises are purely cheating subsidies, and they don't care about research and development at all, and waste a lot of resources in vain!"
