The first teleportation done by scientists is a reality, and quantum computing unlocked this tantalizing development. Teleportation is the stuff of fantasy but done in the quantum world that will have groundbreaking effects. Never in human history has this technical experiment achieved success, until now.
The medium used to achieve quantum and data teleportation were two computer chips, that was done in only in 2019. Quantum entanglement was the means they transferred the chips, through a non-physical vacuum. This means no wires and by linking two quantum particles in a gap, with concepts from quantum physics.
Most scientists are still trying to understand quantum entanglement, Albert Einstein could not even explain how it works too. He called it "spooky action" too, physicists today are just scratching the surface of the problem. Learning about how it works using computers chips is important to derive more accurate guesses too.
Linking the chips were done by exciting both chips in one quantum condition, which can be anything too. When the right conditions are met, the chips were programmed to do several demos by using quantum entanglement. One can make it like connecting two-object with one invisible string, that makes the object mimic or do anything without a connection.
One explanation is that quantum teleportation works because the objects are attracted despite a visible gap. Both objects on each end are the same, which is the quantum particle on either computer chip. Entangled photon pairs created inside each chip, the particles had low interference and accurate too. These particles were four qubits, linked together, during the experiment, to get the desired effect and result.
Connecting the particles via the invisible quantum bridge, that connects two chips. Results of the experiment were measured by predicting how the particles would behave when the quantum entanglement is removed. With the measurements in, they confirm it was indeed teleportation for the first time.
Throughout the experiment, they achieved 91% success, and everything was recorded for posterity. Further investigation into the nature of quantum entangle is giving more clues about "spooky action". Even in a lab setting the technician and the equipment are very big, not exactly portable. Takes a lot of prep to make the experiments happen in most cases.
Progress made in lab conditions, that will lead to better computing power, and processing data on a higher level. But, that is not yet possible for now, and hopes for better anti-hacking protocols might be in the works later. Success from fewer data lost and stable transmission during the quantum teleport, with high control made the teleport possible visa quantum entanglement.
Success and results are important to get more research done, with teleportation, there will be more possibilities as well. One side note is the start of tying up quantum physics and the silicon chip (Si-chip) technology. Application for computer use and CMOS techniques to manufacture those chips.
Once the science is refined for Si-chips and combining with photonic devices will be an innovation. By achieving quantum teleportation in chips, that transfer tons of quantum data will revolutionize quantum computers. As networks advance and the need for physical connection is a ditched, the possibilities are endless.
