To do this, the researchers used terahertz waves – through them they arranged a wireless connection to a quantum computer in a special refrigerator. A small transmitter was embedded in the computer, which communicates with the device in the laboratory through a special window.
Terahertz waves are reported to have a higher frequency than radio waves and allow faster data transfer. At the same time, the system consumes 10 times less energy than traditional systems, where metal cables are used for data transmission and removal of excess heat.
Recall that in early 2022, the Chinese company SpinQ Technology launched a series of home quantum computers. The cheapest model in the series costs “only” $8,700.
