Quantum chip and silicon core difference?

Quantum chip refers to the chip that can realize quantum computing, and its main feature is to introduce quantum effects, to realize quantum computing operations, and to process quantum data in real time. It is usually composed of active and passive devices, which can realize quantum computing functions, quantum chips can realize quantum logic, simulate quantum systems, and realize quantum information processing, quantum control, quantum transmission and other operations.

Silicon chip refers to the chip made of silicon, it was first made by the American inventor Bell Johnson Locke, it can achieve the basic operation of the computer, and can process a large amount of data, it is the main processing element in today's computer system. Silicon chip has perfect structure and high performance, and is an indispensable element in most computer systems and electronic products.

The biggest difference between the two is that quantum chips are used to implement quantum computing operations, while silicon chips are used to implement basic computer operations. By introducing quantum effects, quantum chips can realize quantum computing operations and can process quantum data in real time, while silicon chips are a processing element used to realize basic computer operations, which can process a large amount of data, which is the main processing element in today's computer systems.

The main difference between quantum chips and silicon chips is their function. A quantum chip is a chip used to process quantum data, which can be used to simulate a quantum computer and achieve quantum computing tasks. A silicon chip is an integrated circuit that can be used to implement typical circuit functions such as logic gates, data processing, arithmetic, and so on.

Quantum chips use quantum phenomena, such as qubits, quantum interference, and quantum modulation, to simulate quantum computers and achieve quantum computing tasks. Silicon chips, through circuit design, combine multiple circuit components (such as resistors, capacitors, transistors, integrated circuits, etc.) to achieve typical circuit functions.

Quantum chips have supercomputing power and can solve problems that cannot be solved by traditional computers, and are widely used in computer science, finance, scientific research, security and other fields. The silicon chip is a universal chip, ordinary computers, smart phones, electronic devices are used in silicon chips, they are mainly used for ordinary computing tasks.


1, quantum chips are mainly used in the communication industry, is an indispensable part of the communication equipment system.

2, the optical chip is used to complete the conversion of photoelectric signals, is the core device, divided into active optical chip and passive optical chip. Optical chip includes laser, modulator, coupler, wavelength division multiplexer, detector and so on. There are a large number of optical chips in the operator's core switched network equipment, wavelength division multiplexing equipment, and the upcoming 5G equipment.

3, in the core construction of optical networks such as routers, base stations, transmission systems, and access networks, the cost of optical devices accounts for more than 60%. Optical module is the most important part of 5G, in order to obtain excess profits in the 5G era, it must be in the upstream chip and core device layout and extension.

4. Silicon-based chips are relatively traditional.

5, silicon-based chips are also known as microcircuits, microchips, integrated circuits. A small piece of silicon containing an integrated circuit, often part of a computer or other electronic device.


Quantum chips can bypass the traditional silicon-based chip manufacturing necessary lithography machine, quantum chip is the quantum circuit integrated on the substrate, through the quantum bump technology for information processing and transmission, manufacturing does not use the lithography machine.

Silicon based chips Quantum chips are less dependent on EUV lithography. According to the test results, the performance of quantum chips is at least a thousand times more than that of electronic chips, and its application range is also wider.


The difference between quantum chips and silicon chips

Quantum chips are a new type of chip that is different from the traditional semiconductor basis. Unlike previous chips using semiconductor materials, quantum effects are basically overturning the original approach and drawing on the original theory only in terms of concepts and algorithms. Other aspects are different at the basic level of composition. It's like building a house out of wood instead of reinforced concrete. Although they are inhabited by people, the basis of the composition is different. Quantum chips, if born, will be the core of future computers with new cpus.

    Silicon chips are built on silicon, and quantum chips, in fact, quantum circuits are integrated on carbon-based materials to achieve information processing and computing, and the most advanced silicon-based chips in mass production are five nanometers, nanometers are billionths of a meter, 20 silicon atoms wide.
