Cisco says its new entanglement chip could speed up practical quantum computing timeline by a decade
Briefly

Cisco has unveiled a groundbreaking prototype entanglement source chip capable of generating one million entangled photon pairs per second at room temperature. This development, in collaboration with UC Santa Barbara, could reduce the practical implementation timeline of quantum computing by a decade. Additionally, they are launching Cisco Quantum Labs in Santa Monica to focus on quantum research. Cisco aims to create quantum networking and security infrastructures, recognizing that future quantum computing will rely on interconnected networks. Their unique approach could redefine timelines in an industry that some anticipate will take decades to mature.
Cisco's development of a prototype entanglement source chip could advance practical quantum computing by up to a decade, utilizing room temperature technology to generate entangled photons.
Cisco is pioneering quantum networking and security, stating that to make quantum computing practical, a robust network supported by an entanglement chip is essential.
