Photonic quantum computers
Photonic quantum computers use particles of light, called photons, to perform quantum computations. Photons can exist in multiple states simultaneously, allowing these computers to process complex information much faster than traditional computers. They leverage properties like superposition and entanglement, enabling highly secure communication and advanced problem-solving capabilities. Since photons travel at the speed of light and cause less interference, photonic quantum computers are promising for scalable, practical quantum technology, with potential applications in cryptography, optimization, and simulation of complex quantum systems.
