What to Look For
Qubits and Logic:
Encoding information in logical qubits
Creating entanglement on demand
Qubits that last for whole seconds
Reliably transferring information from atoms to photons and back
Computers:
Fault-tolerant operation of a multi-qubit computer
10-qubit computer
100-qubit computer
1,000-qubit computer
A quantum computer that outperforms classical computers
Communications:
Electric, room-temperature single-photon sources
Efficient sources of entangled photons
Efficient room-temperature photon detectors
Quantum repeaters or relays
Algorithms:
Proof of a quantum speedup for route optimization-type problems
Proof of a quantum speedup for pattern recognition problems
Proof of a quantum speedup for simulating chaos
