2. 光量子計(jì)算機(jī)
photon quantum computer
請看例句:
Chinese scientists have built the world's first photon quantum computing machine that goes beyond the early classical computers, paving the way to the ultimate realization of quantum computing.
我國科學(xué)家已構(gòu)建出世界首臺(tái)超越早期經(jīng)典計(jì)算機(jī)的光量子計(jì)算機(jī),為最終實(shí)現(xiàn)量子計(jì)算鋪平了道路。
中國科學(xué)技術(shù)大學(xué)的潘建偉院士(academician)3日在上海宣布,我國科研團(tuán)隊(duì)成功構(gòu)建了世界首臺(tái)超越早期經(jīng)典計(jì)算機(jī)的基于單光子的光量子計(jì)算機(jī)(build the world's first quantum computing machine based on single photons that goes beyond the early classical computers),為最終實(shí)現(xiàn)(ultimate realization)超越經(jīng)典計(jì)算能力的量子計(jì)算奠定了堅(jiān)實(shí)基礎(chǔ)(lay a solid foundation)。
量子計(jì)算機(jī)是指利用量子相干疊加原理(exploit the quantum interference and superposition principle)、理論上具有超快的并行計(jì)算和模擬能力(ultra-fast parallel calculation and simulation capabilities)的計(jì)算機(jī)。曾有人打過一個(gè)比方:如果現(xiàn)在傳統(tǒng)(conventional)計(jì)算機(jī)的速度是自行車,量子計(jì)算機(jī)的速度就好比飛機(jī)。實(shí)驗(yàn)測試表明,該原型機(jī)的取樣速度比國際同行加快至少2.4萬倍(the test results show the sampling rate of this prototype is at least 24,000 times faster than international counterparts),通過和經(jīng)典算法(classical algorithm)比較,也比人類歷史上第一臺(tái)電子管計(jì)算機(jī)(electronic computer)和第一臺(tái)晶體管計(jì)算機(jī)(transistor computer)運(yùn)行速度快10倍至100倍。量子計(jì)算機(jī)更擅長解決密碼分析(cryptanalysis)、氣象預(yù)報(bào)(weather forecasting)、藥物設(shè)計(jì)(drug design)、金融分析(financial analysis)、石油勘探(oil exploration)等大規(guī)模計(jì)算難題。
