The Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis for their work on quantum mechanics that is paving the way for a new generation of very powerful computers. Quantum mechanics relates to the behaviour of tiny things in a tiny world. It refers to what particles like the electron do in the sub-atomic world.
This pathbreaking work has demonstrated that quantum mechanical effects, which were once thought to be confined to the microscopic world of atoms and subatomic particles, can also occur in larger, human-scale systems that can be held in the hand.
Their experiments involved superconducting circuits with Josephson junctions ultra thin insulating layers between superconductors where electrons flow coherently like waves instead of individual particles. This quantum tunneling allows electric current to pass through barriers without any external power source, defying classical physics laws. The discovery lays the foundational science for next-generation quantum computers, which promise to solve in seconds problems that today’s fastest supercomputers would take years to crack.
This revolutionary research marks a giant leap towards powerful quantum computing, quantum cryptography, and ultra-precise quantum sensors, heralding a new era of digital technology that could revolutionize industries from finance to medicine.
Watch the video to explore how this discovery is shaping the future of computing and transforming what’s possible in science and technology.
