    Transcript | Building a new Type of Quantum Computer with Superfluid Helium
    EeroQ is building a new type of quantum computing chip that  uses electrons in superfluid helium. The approach promises over 1-GHz gate speed, spin-state qubits with over 1-second coherence times, and high connectivity or “gateability.” Will these machines also be linkable or modular? In addition we discuss funding for quantum startups, the need for quantum knowledge by all – not just physicists…
