Lasers can be used to lengthen quantum bit memory by 1,000 times

laserWASHINGTON - Physicists have found that lasers can be used to drastically prolong the shelf life of quantum bit memory, the 0s and 1s of quantum computers, by 1,000 times. These precarious bits, formed in this case by arrays of semiconductor quantum dots containing a single extra electron, are easily perturbed by magnetic field fluctuations from the nuclei of the atoms creating the quantum dot.
