Recently, the University of Science and Technology of China announced that after years of hard work, the research team has successfully developed the "Zuchong-2" superconducting quantum computer.

It is reported that the computing power of this type of supercomputer has been significantly improved, with a computing speed one million times faster than the American "Suzuki" computer. The emergence of "Zuchong No.2" marks that China is at the forefront of the world in the field of superconducting quantum computers and plays a very important role in consolidating China's quantum hegemony.

Before the birth of "Zuchong No.2", China had successfully developed the "Nine Chapters" quantum computer. The computing power of this machine is super powerful, and compared to the world's most advanced computers, "Nine Chapters" can be said to have surpassed each other by several streets.

For example, the "Fuyue" computer, which makes Japanese people proud, has a computing speed of 5.3 billion times per second and has long occupied the first place on the list. However, after the publication of "Nine Chapters", it directly shattered the myth of "Mount Fu" being maintained. For example, when calculating Gaussian Bose sampling for 5000 samples, "Nine Chapters" only takes 200 seconds, while "Mount Fuji" takes 600 million years.

Surprisingly, not long after the release of "Nine Chapters", "Zuchong No.2" was successfully launched. It is reported that the institution has built a 66 bit programmable superconducting quantum computer, which is 4 bits more than the previous "Zu Chongzhi".

Don't underestimate these 4 bits, they can increase computing power by many times. According to experts, it is 10 million times faster than traditional supercomputing, and no country's computer can achieve it globally.

So, what contribution did the birth of the "Nine Chapters" and "Zuchong No.2" with such fast computing speed make to social development? Firstly, in the civilian field, quantum computers can be applied in material design, cloud technology development, password cracking, and more.

For example, the design of chips is very complex, and quantum computers can accelerate the development speed of chips. In addition to the civilian field, quantum computers can also be applied in the military field, playing an important role in military development.

The emergence of new things always drives the development and transformation of the times. The emergence of quantum computers will drive tremendous changes in the world. For China, a series of achievements have been made in the field of quantum computing, which is conducive to leading the transformation of the times.

However, there are still many problems that need to be solved in the practical application of quantum computers. After solving the existing problems, quantum computers can basically be put into practical use.
