A new approach for processing quantum information

Quantum information systems derive their power from controllable interactions that generate quantum entanglement. Buiding scalable quantum information systems require programmable operations between desired qubits within a quantum processor. In most advanced approaches, qubits interact locally, constrained by the connectivity associated with their fixed spatial layout. In a new study, scientists demonstrated a quantum processor in which qubits are coherently transported in a highly parallel manner across two spatial dimensions. Plus, the processor has dynamic, non-local connectivity. This new approach for processing quantum information allows scientists to dynamically change the layout of atoms by moving and connecting them amid computation. The ability to shuffle qubits while maintaining a quantum state during the computation process drastically enhances processing capabilities. It also allows
