The significance of this announcement was highlighted in research release last week by Simon Fraser University in their "crucial breakthrough in the development of all-silicon photonic quantum systems". Stephanie Simmons, Canada Research Chair in Silicon Quantum Technologies at the SFU Silicon Quantum Technology Lab, explains: "By finding a way to create quantum computing processors in silicon, you can take advantage of all of the years of development, knowledge, and infrastructure used to manufacture conventional computers, rather than creating a whole new industry for quantum manufacturing" she said. "This represents an almost insurmountable competitive advantage in the international race for a quantum computer."
