Напредък на научните изследвания
В началото на 80-те години Бениоф за първи път предложи идеята за квантово изчисление. Той проектира изпълнима квантова машина на Тюринг с класическа аналогия — прототип на квантов компютър.
In1982,FeynmandevelopedBenioff’svision,proposingthatquantumcomputerscansimulateotherquantumsystems.Inordertosimulatequantummechanicalsystems,Feynmanproposedtheconceptofworkingcomputersinaccordancewiththelawsofquantummechanics,whichisconsideredtheearliestideaofquantumcomputers.
In1985,DavidDeutschofOxfordUniversityprovedthatanyphysicalprocesscanbewellsimulatedbyaquantumcomputerinprinciple,andproposedacomputersimulationbasedonquantuminterference,thatis,"quantumlogic".Thenewconceptof"gate"pointsoutthegeneralizationofquantumcomputersandthegenerationandcorrectionoferrorsinquantumcalculations.In-depthanalysisandresearchweredonebyZurek.Butbythemid-1980s,thisfieldofresearchwasleftoutforseveralreasons.Firstofall,becauseallquantumcomputermodelsatthetimeregardedquantumcomputersasanisolatedsystemthatdidnotinteractwiththeexternalenvironment,ratherthanactualmodels.Secondly,therearemanyconstraintsthatarenotconducivetotherealizationofquantumcomputers,suchasdecoherenceandthermalnoisepointedoutbyLandauer.Inaddition,quantumcomputersmaybeerror-proneandnoteasytocorrect.Finally,itisunclearwhetherquantumcomputerssolvemathematicalproblemsfasterthanclassicalcalculations.
In1994,Dr.PererShorofAT&Tdiscoveredaneffectivequantumalgorithmforfactorization.In1996,S.LoydprovedFeynman'sconjecture.Hepointedoutthatsimulatingtheevolutionofquantumsystemswillbecomeanimportantuseofquantumcomputers,whichcanbebuiltonthebasisofquantumTuringmachines.Sincethen,withtherapidprogressofinterdisciplinaryresearchbetweencomputerscienceandphysics,thetheoreticalandexperimentalresearchofquantumcomputinghasflourished.Asthedevelopmentofquantumcomputershasbeguntoenteranewera,governmentsandmajorcompanieshavealsoformulatedaseriesofresearchanddevelopmentplansforquantumcomputers.
