Quantum computing is bringing forward a new shift in technology. Many companies are exploring the advantages of quantum computing, as it shows promising results and bright future outlook.
Semiconductor chip demand is continuously on the rise. More and more devices are utilizing the power of computation and digital communication from cars, televisions, home systems to even smart lighting in homes. For any digital device that uses electricity, chances are that the device is utilizing a semiconductor.
Scaling down computation power in smaller devices for being energy efficient is on right track, however scaling up computation power through technological breakthrough has been a challenge.
Quantum computing in recent years is providing a hope for scaling computation power to new benchmarks. Quantum computing is a new and developing technology, it also requires a huge investment for research and development.
We take a look to understand how different publicly listed companies are developing quantum computing to their benefit.
