Qubyte

Qubyte

A "qubyte" is a collection of eight entangled qubits.

It was first demonstrated by a team at the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information at the University of Innsbruck in Austria [http://www.juiceenewsdaily.com/1105/news/byte.html?1133470239046] [http://heart-c704.uibk.ac.at/index.html] in December 2005. This development is one of many recent ones in the field of quantum computing.
