Applications of graphene in quantum computing
Quantum computing has emerged as a competitive alternative in computing, which leverages the principle of quantum mechanics to enhances the performance of electronics in various domains, including biochemodeling, material science and semiconductor technologies. Among the materials gaining attention in this field, graphene, a two-dimensional allotrope of carbon, has positioned itself as a promising candidate for numerous applications in quantum computing. It’s unique thermal conductivity, mechanical strength and and high electron mobility make it an ideal material for several uses in quantum computing, such as qubit implementation- the fundamental units for storing and transmitting quantum information- and carriers to enable various quantum functions. This paper will delve into the fundamental working principles underlying quantum computing and highlight its advantages over classical computers, such as the ability to perform certain complex calculations exponentially faster. Furthermore, this paper will illustrate why graphene is suitable for quantum computing and provide brief contexts about their combined usage in potential fields, based on recent research and experiments. This paper aims to contribute to the understanding of how graphene can be effectively utilized in quantum computing, potentially opening new avenues for future developments in quantum technologies and computing capabilities.
