#QUANTUM: "Harnessing a MEMS mechanical memory"
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST, Boulder, Colorado) has demoed a MEMS version of a delay-line memory which it claims will be a viable scratchpad memory for future quantum computers. By converting quantum encoded microwave photons into acoustic phonons in a mechanical medium--and back again--the MEMS memory can store intermediate quantum-bit (Q-bits) values during calculations: R.
