However, cooling these systems efficiently has been a challenge for years. Current refrigerators use complex systems that do not always reach the necessary temperatures.   <\/p>\n\n<p>Chalmers University of Technology\u2019s new quantum refrigerator, which is powered by heat from the environment, <strong>has managed to cool a qubit down to 22 millikelvin, without the need for external control<\/strong> . This innovative technology, which uses superconducting circuits, has been shown to be able to keep qubits in their lowest energy state, increasing the reliability of quantum calculations.
