Chen Qidong, a distinguished researcher at the Institute of Physics and Applied Science of Academia Sinica Research Center, said on the 29th that the development process of 5-bit superconducting quantum computers is the best platform for building a domestic quantum computing ecosystem. The control system of qubits is a high-speed digital electronic instrument. , can be provided to domestic industries for testing and development, and the close integration of quantum computers and high-performance computers will improve the overall computing power.Photo by Zhang Xiongfeng, Central News Agency reporter, on January 29, 113
(Central News Agency reporter Zhang Xiongfeng, Taipei, 29) President Tsai Ing-wen inspected the progress of Academia Sinica’s home-made 5-bit superconducting quantum computer today. She mentioned that quantum communication encryption can strengthen information security and also represents national security will bring great benefits to areas such as AI, finance and biomedicine. I believe that Taiwan will be able to contribute to the world in the near future.
The Academia Sinica held a “Progress Report of the Quantum Computing Special Center”. President Tsai personally visited Taiwan’s first self-developed 5-bit full-system superconducting quantum computer and encouraged the research team to reach higher levels.
In his speech, President Tsai explained that Academia Sinica proposed the idea more than three years ago, pointing out that quantum computers are the next-generation technology industry in various countries. Today’s announcement marks an important milestone in Taiwan’s quantum technology development and demonstrates Taiwan’s important strength in science and technology development.
President Tsai pointed out that quantum communications encryption can strengthen information security, which is also national security, and will have a major impact on AI, finance, biomedicine and other fields. In May last year, Tsinghua University developed a quantum encrypted communication network. In October last year, Academia Sinica developed a quantum chip. Now the creation of the first quantum computer is a very noticeable breakthrough.
President Tsai said that in the future, resources will continue to be invested in the quantum base at the south campus of Academia Sinica to “vertically integrate” key topics from basic research to practical application results, continue to act as a locomotive, and establish a quantum technology industry chain and expansion of research and development capacities. To create opportunities for the next generation, I believe that “Taiwan can bring our strength to the world in the near future.”
Academia Sinica President Liao Junzhi said that the concept of quantum computers was proposed decades ago, but technological breakthroughs have only been achieved in recent years. Academia Sinica discussed the development of quantum computers in Taiwan in 2019, including superconducting quantum computers. Get strong support from the government.
Liao Junzhi said that although Taiwan is not number one in the world, “it has completed research and development in countries that can be counted on one hand.”
Wu Zhengzhong, chairman of the National Science Council, said that the national team consists of the National Science Council, the Ministry of Economic Affairs and the Academia Sinica. Although funding is not as good as in Europe and the United States, there are talents and technologies from Taiwan’s universities, research units and the semiconductor industry will also join. Taiwan is competitive in the world. Power. He said quantum computing is an industry of the future and Taiwan has the ability to shrink room-sized devices into a regular computer.
Chen Qidong, a distinguished researcher at the Institute of Physics and Applied Science of Academia Sinica Research Center, explained that the development process of 5-bit superconducting quantum computers is the best platform for building a domestic quantum computing ecosystem; The Qubit control system is a high-speed digital electronic instrument provided to domestic industry participants for testing and development, and the close integration of quantum computers and high-performance computers will improve the overall performance of computing power.
In addition, Chen Qidong added that the entire low-temperature system and its internal high-density coaxial lines, high-density high-frequency connectors and electromagnetic shielding packaging boxes for quantum chips require the cooperation of advanced technologies from the precision electronics industry; today’s results represent Taiwan. Join the few countries in the world that can build their own superconducting quantum computers.
In 2022, Academia Sinica will jointly organize the “Quantum National Team” with the National Science Council and the Ministry of Economic Affairs, focusing on general quantum computing hardware technology, optical quantum technology, key peripheral components, quantum software technology and application development, and cutting cutting-edge research foundations.
