Quantum scaling via trapped ion chains

By Margaret C Osborne

Quantum computers over a completely different computing paradigm than classical computers. Harnessing the fundamental properties of quantum mechanics, quantum computers promise to solve certain classes of problems that are impossible

or intractable with modern classical computers. In some sense, quantum computers are unavoidable, as the Moore's law scaling of classical transistors eventually envisions that bits are reduced to the size of atoms, where quantum mechanics becomes the dominating principle. One of the first envisioned applications of quantum computers is to simulate and solve important physical processes that operate under the laws of quantum mechanics, including molecular structure and chemical reaction

mechanisms 1, 2, 3, 4]. The key idea is that because nature is fundamentally quantum, a quantum computer will be more efficient at modeling these systems
