These batteries store energy using light and can be recharged by the computer's own components through quantum entanglement. The approach could reduce heat generation, minimize wiring, and improve computational speed through quantum superextensivity. While still theoretical, this breakthrough addresses major barriers to scaling quantum computers. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
