The researchers have created components that could one day be used to develop quantum computers - devices based on molecular scale technology instead of silicon chips and which would be much faster than conventional computers. The study, by scientists at the Universities of Manchester and Edinburgh and published in the journal Nature, was funded by the European Commission. Scientists have achieved the breakthrough by combining tiny magnets with molecular machines. (source: manchester.ac.uk)
