Academia Sinica’s president, James C. Liao, announced that the institution will continue investing in the quantum base, transitioning from basic experimental development to practical application through vertical integration. Academia Sinica has accumulated significant research and development capabilities in quantum technology, including achievements in quantum computer chip design, production, and state control and reading techniques for quantum bits. In 2023, Academia Sinica successfully developed Taiwan’s first five-qubit quantum chip and made the quantum computer system available on the cloud for partner testing, placing Taiwan among the countries with self-made superconducting quantum computers. This accomplishment has had a significant impact on domestic quantum technology research, serving as a demonstration and inspiration for further advancements.2024/01/29 17:13 -

Infiniti EV步伐慢半拍? 葫蘆裡究竟賣什麼藥?!
稍早之前,Infiniti對外正式發表LSUV新作QX60,其更精緻更豪華的配備規格固然吸引不少粉絲們的目光。但對於新世代能源渴望更激進的買家而言,眼前所謂的全新產品似乎缺乏了一點新意。特別是當前電動化風潮在全球正如火如荼地展開,美國、中國及歐陸等主要市場更以實際行動讓世人看到這巨變中的強大勢力。作為躋身豪華品牌之林的Infiniti在EV進程上卻未有明確宣示或大動作,新作QX60依舊只在北美市場端出了3.5升V6動力,在中國推出2.0升VC-Turbo動力,EV、Hybrid卻是付之闕如,如此作為在當前競爭激烈的綠能風潮中不免令人擔憂。2021/07/15 14:50 -
