The world's smallest electronic switch has recently been disclosed in this electronic switch will reduce the size of the microchip and to bring about revolutionary changes in calculation speed.

The seven atom-sized transistors the size of the 4 billionth of a meter and embedded in a single silicon crystal, is the first step towards quantum computing. Quantum computing will enable computing speeds 100 times faster than existing equipment.

The person in charge of this study, this technology have important significance for the weather forecast for the code-breaking, financial transaction processing and testing, including a large number of possible situation. You will be able to use a conventional computer to solve the problem need to use much longer time than the life of the universe can not be resolved.
