Fujitsu develops diamond-spin quantum computer prototype, targets high-temperature operation and scaling

Fujitsu has developed what it says is the world’s first quantum computer prototype that applies a special diamond at the core of computation. The company aims to improve the stability of quantum states and system scalability using a diamond-spin approach different from superconducting methods. Fujitsu says the method is more resistant to external noise and can make qubit connections easier, supporting expansion to larger systems and potential operation at relatively higher temperatures.
