Polaritons, hybrid particles formed by the coupling of light and matter, are usually described as a quantum fluid of light that one can control through its matter component.

This is the 2023 future stuff I've been waiting for.

This is by far the most jargon-dense article I've ever read. I may not understand any of it, but their excitement is contagious!

You ever see how they make a plumbus?

Next gen computing? We haven’t even really got the previous next gen working of quantum computing.

This could be a method of providing an absolutely stable and controlled communication medium to optimize quantum computing and increase data throughput at warmer temps. Traditional silicon-based substrates are nearing their end of life for bleeding edge architectures.

Traditional computing isn’t going anywhere, even if silicon is on the way out

Not saying it is, just mentioning what use case this may be optimal for.
