Graphene and Quantum computers both have the potential to change tech as we know it and each holds it's own applications including Solar Panels, LEDs and Smart Windows or Phones but perhaps the most interesting thing about these two things is the results we might get if we combine the two of these materials.
Graphene has often been called the "wonder material" due to the fact that it has the potential to do things a lot faster than current technology can currently do and it will eventually replace current tech as current tech reaches it's limits. Current technology already is starting to exceed it's limits as companies like Intel are having to delay their chips like Cannonlake due to the fact that they couldn't shrink the die fast enough so the current tick-tock cycle has became tick-tick-tock or simply it's taking 3 years to reach the next advance in tech rather then every other year.
So with all of that said researchers at the EPEL's lab of Photonics and Quantum Measurements have been researching how to build a quantum capacitor that creates qubits (the use of information storage in quantum computers) that are resistant to EMF interference. They hope that this will be the first step in producing quantum computers.
To conclude this, it looks like we are on the way towards building the first quantum computer and it's going to be pretty exciting if the reports about this wonder material achieving almost 500 ghz is to be believed. The only question is how long will be waiting?
