Turkey’s first quantum computer will be introduced at a ceremony to be held tomorrow. The name and features of the quantum computer will be announced at the ceremony tomorrow. Details of this computer, such as the number of qubits and processing power, have not yet been announced. TOBB ETÜ and ASELSAN established the Quantum Research Laboratory in 2023 to develop a 5-qubit computer.
According to the information revealed, Turkey’s first quantum computer open to continuous improvement It was designed with an infrastructure. The performance of the computer can be increased in light of technological developments and scientific requirements.
Quantum technology will also offer new opportunities to young people and entrepreneurs. TOBB ETÜ aims to encourage young researchers to receive education in this field with quantum computing. In addition, with the “Quantum Ecosystem” that will be put into operation within TOBB ETÜ, it is aimed to provide a competitive advantage on a global scale in this field by supporting entrepreneurs to develop domestic hardware and components in quantum technologies.
What is a quantum computer?
A quantum computer is a type of computer that performs calculations using the principles of quantum mechanics, unlike classical computers. While traditional computers use “bits” (0 or 1) to process information, quantum computers kybit It uses (quantum bit). Qubits can represent multiple states simultaneously thanks to quantum mechanical properties such as superposition and mediation. This allows quantum computers to solve some complex problems much faster.
What are the current quantum computers in the world?
There is no commercial competitive environment in the field of quantum computers in the world yet. When we look at the companies developing quantum scale computers, which are seen as the technology of the future, the first thing we see is Google’s It was announced in 2019 that it had achieved quantum supremacy. 53 qubit processor developed in 2019 Sycamore The quantum computer named “Computer” completes in 200 seconds a process that would take at least 10 thousand years with classical supercomputers. In 2023 IBM’in The quantum computer called Eagle achieved accurate results at the 100+ qubit scale. Inteldeveloped a 49-qubit prototype called “Tangle Lake”. In addition to these companies, D-Wave Systems, IonQ Quantum Systems, Alibaba and Righetti’s quantum computers offer services. Microsoftannounced that it will develop a quantum computer “capable of performing one million quantum operations per second” in the next 10 years, in cooperation with DARPA.
Features of Quantum Computers
- superposition: Qubits can be in both 0 and 1 states simultaneously, increasing parallel processing capacity.
- entanglement:Qubits can be interconnected, meaning that the state of one qubit instantly affects the other.
- Quantum Tunneling: Allows certain computational paths to be overcome in ways not possible on classical computers.
Uses of Quantum Computers
- Cryptography: It has potential especially in breaking RSA and other classical encryption methods. In addition, it is also used for quantum encryption (quantum key distribution).
- Materials Science: Quantum computers can be used for the discovery and simulations of new materials. The ability to perform simulations at the atomic level provides a great advantage.
- Optimization Problems: It is very effective in solving large-scale optimization problems encountered in logistics, finance and engineering.
- Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence: It can analyze large data sets faster and enable more complex algorithms to be run.
- Drug Development: It can accelerate the development of new drugs with simulations at the molecular level.
- Weather and Climate Modeling: Can be used to model very complex and variable weather systems.
- Financial Models: Used for risk management, portfolio optimization and pricing models.
