Google introduced their new chip 'willow' yesterday, pushing the world of technology and AI into hyperspace.

Google’s Willow Quantum Chip Crushes Classical Computers on a Cosmic Timescale

Willow completed a benchmark computational task, demonstrating that errors decrease exponentially as the quantum computer's qubit count increases.



Google just debuted its latest quantum chip, Willow, which the tech giant claims can perform calculations in five minutes that would take the world’s fastest supercomputers 10 septillion years. For reference, the universe isn’t even 14 billion years old—a fraction of a fraction of that timescale.

Quantum computers make their calculations in a fundamentally different way than classical supercomputers. The team’s research, published today in Nature, outlines the error suppression in the Willow processor and the system’s superlative performance, which the team wrote, “if scaled, could realize the operational requirements of large scale fault-tolerant quantum algorithms.”

Quantum devices are famously finicky; to perform their remarkable calculations they must be kept in a quantum state, which generally means a laboratory environment at near-absolute-zero temperatures. At such frosty climes, the system becomes superconductive, enabling the device to perform operations beyond the limits of classical physics.

The outstanding issue—or goal, depending on your framing—is that quantum computers are still not capable of solving problems beyond the remit of classical computers. That’s the real grail in quantum computing: a device that has practical commercial applications beyond what would make sense, or even be possible, on cutting-edge classical computers.

Unlike conventional bits of information in a classical computer, which represent a value of “0” or “1”, quantum bits (or qubits) can represent “0” and “1” simultaneously. In this way, the computer can crunch numbers more rapidly than traditional devices. If too many errors occur in the quantum system, however, the operation falls apart.

A major part of Willow’s significance is that the more qubits Willow uses, the fewer errors the system has. Errors can cause quantum operations to collapse, but instead of errors scaling up with the size of the computer, they are diminished.

Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=W7ppd_RY-UE

In a press release accompanying the announcement, Hartmut Neven, the founder and lead of Google Quantum AI, wrote that “we tested ever-larger arrays of physical qubits, scaling up from a grid of 3×3 encoded qubits, to a grid of 5×5, to a grid of 7×7 — and each time, using our latest advances in quantum error correction, we were able to cut the error rate in half.”

“In other words,” Neven wrote, “we achieved an exponential reduction in the error rate.”

The error reduction is called “below threshold,” and is a watershed moment in the quest to build future quantum computers with even fewer errors. According to a Google release, the Willow system also showed substantive advancements in real-time error correction in the system—which is to say that the computer was mitigating errors that arose while it was working on a problem. Additionally, the qubit arrays were longer-lived than individual physical qubits in the system, indicating error correction was improving the resiliency of the entire quantum chip.

The carbon-14 battery, often referred to as a diamond battery, is a groundbreaking energy storage device developed by scientists from the University of Bristol and the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA). Here are some key points about this technology:

• Design and Functionality: This battery uses the radioactive isotope carbon-14, which is well-known for its use in radiocarbon dating, to generate electricity. The battery operates by capturing the fast-moving electrons produced during the radioactive decay of carbon-14 within a diamond structure. This process is somewhat analogous to how solar panels convert light into electricity, but it uses radioactive decay instead of light.
  

Lifespan: With carbon-14 having a half-life of approximately 5,700 years, the battery has the potential to provide power for thousands of years, offering an incredibly long-lasting energy source. This means that the battery would still be at 50% of its power output after 5,700 years.

Applications: The primary applications envisioned for this technology include:

• Medical Devices: Due to its biocompatible nature, it could power devices like pacemakers, hearing aids, and ocular implants, reducing the need for frequent battery replacements which can involve surgery

Extreme Environments: It's suitable for environments where battery replacement is impractical, such as deep space missions or remote sensors on Earth, like those on the ocean floor or in space.

Security and Tracking: The battery could be used in radio frequency identification (RFID) tags for long-term tracking and identification without needing maintenance.

Safety and Sustainability: Encapsulating the radioactive carbon-14 within diamond ensures that the short-range radiation is safely contained, making the battery safe for use. Furthermore, this technology provides a novel approach to managing nuclear waste, as it repurposes carbon-14 from graphite blocks used in nuclear reactors.


Current Status: The development of this battery is still in the research phase, with prototypes demonstrating potential but not yet commercialized. The focus is on scaling up production and exploring applications with industry partners.


This technology represents a significant leap in energy storage solutions, aiming to provide sustainable, long-term power for various applications, especially where conventional battery replacement is a challenge.

• This carbon-14 battery has a lifespan of several thousand years! 🔋

The concept of a carbon-14 battery for space propulsion, particularly in the context of ion drives for Mars missions, is still very much in the realm of theoretical research and not yet part of practical application. Here's how this might theoretically play out:

Carbon-14 Battery:

• Design: A carbon-14 battery, often termed a diamond battery, involves encapsulating carbon-14 within a diamond structure. The beta decay of carbon-14 generates electrons that can be directly converted into electrical energy through the diamond's semiconductor properties.
• Advantages for Space:
  • Longevity: The long half-life of carbon-14 (about 5,700 years) means that these batteries could theoretically power systems for millennia, which is ideal for long-duration space missions where refueling or battery replacement isn't feasible.
  • Radiation Resistance: Being made of diamond, these batteries would be highly resistant to the harsh radiation environment of space, unlike some other battery technologies.

Ion Drive Propulsion:

• Mechanism: Ion thrusters work by ionizing a propellant (often xenon) and then using electric fields to accelerate these ions out of the thruster, providing a continuous but low thrust. The efficiency comes from the high exhaust velocity, which reduces the amount of propellant needed for long missions.
• Power Requirements: Ion drives require a significant amount of electrical power to operate the ionization, acceleration, and neutralization processes. Traditionally, this power is supplied by solar panels or nuclear reactors.

Combining Carbon-14 Batteries with Ion Drives for Mars Missions:

• Power Supply: If carbon-14 batteries could be scaled up to provide the necessary power for ion drives, they would offer a nearly inexhaustible power source for the propulsion system, potentially making missions to Mars and beyond more feasible with less need for solar arrays or nuclear reactors.
• Challenges:
  • Power Output: Current carbon-14 battery designs produce very low power outputs (in the microwatt range), which is far below what's needed for an ion drive, which typically requires kilowatts.
  • Scalability: Scaling up these batteries to meet the power demands of an ion drive would involve significant engineering challenges, including managing heat dissipation, ensuring safety with radioactive materials, and maintaining efficiency over long durations.
  • Regulation and Safety: The use of radioactive materials in space missions involves stringent international regulations and safety protocols.
• Theoretical Applications:
  • Small Robotic Missions: For small-scale missions where low thrust and long-term power are advantageous, like stationary or very slow-moving probes, carbon-14 batteries might be considered.
  • Backup Power: They could serve as a supplementary or emergency power source for critical systems on larger spacecraft, ensuring operation even if primary power systems fail.

Current State:

• Research Phase: While the idea is intriguing, carbon-14 batteries are in early research stages. No space propulsion system has yet been developed or tested using this technology for main propulsion.
• Alternative Propulsion: For Mars missions, current and near-future propulsion technologies like solar electric propulsion (SEP) or nuclear electric propulsion (NEP) are favored for their proven performance and scalability, with ion drives being a prominent example.

In summary, while carbon-14 batteries could theoretically support ion drive propulsion for Mars missions by providing long-term power, the technology's current limitations in power output make this application more speculative than practical. Nonetheless, as research progresses, this could become a niche area for space exploration, particularly for missions where longevity is more critical than high thrust.

First demonstration of quantum teleportation over busy Internet cables

Advance opens door for secure quantum applications without specialized infrastructure


Northwestern engineers have successfully demonstrated quantum teleportation over a fiber optic cable already carrying Internet traffic, introducing the new possibility of combining quantum communication with existing Internet cables. Getty Images

The discovery, published in the journal Optica, introduces the new possibility of combining quantum communication with existing Internet cables — greatly simplifying the infrastructure required for for advanced sensing technologies or quantum computing applications.

“This is incredibly exciting because nobody thought it was possible,” said Northwestern’s Prem Kumar, who led the study. “Our work shows a path towards next-generation quantum and classical networks sharing a unified fiber optic infrastructure. Basically, it opens the door to pushing quantum communications to the next level.”

An expert in quantum communication, Kumar is a professor of electrical and computer engineering at Northwestern’s McCormick School of Engineering, where he directs the Center for Photonic Communication and Computing.

How it works

Only limited by the speed of light, quantum teleportation enables a new, ultra-fast, secure way to share information between distant network users, wherein direct transmission is not necessary. The process works by harnessing quantum entanglement, a technique in which two particles are linked, regardless of the distance between them. Instead of particles physically traveling to deliver information, entangled particles exchange information over great distances — without physically carrying it.

“In optical communications, all signals are converted to light,” Kumar explained. “While conventional signals for classical communications typically comprise millions of particles of light, quantum information uses single photons.”

“By performing a destructive measurement on two photons — one carrying a quantum state and one entangled with another photon — the quantum state is transferred onto the remaining photon, which can be very far away,” said Jordan Thomas, a Ph.D. candidate in Kumar’s laboratory and the paper’s first author. “The photon itself does not have to be sent over long distances, but its state still ends up encoded onto the distant photon. Teleportation allows the exchange of information over great distances without requiring the information itself to travel that distance.”
