Are Quantum Computers a Hype or Reality? With physicist Joel Moore
About this episode
What's driving the current surge of interest in quantum computing? What are the main obstacles to scaling up quantum computing systems? What's the current state of investment in quantum research and development?
For the latest episode of SparX, we are joined by theoretical physicist, Joel Moore. Joel's research has greatly improved our understanding of quantum materials and their unique properties. His work on condensed matter physics has led to important advances in the field, shedding new light on the behavior of complex systems. Join us as we discuss the field of quantum mechanics and understand the progress of quantum computing.
