Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If quantum modules are mounted with low density, then the apparatus is easier to manufacture and operate, but the apparatus becomes very large and cannot achieve sufficient integration
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from two-dimensional planar arrangement to three-dimensional stacked arrangement of quantum modules. Multiple layers of quantum modules are vertically stacked with control modules positioned between layers, enabling high-density integration while maintaining manufacturability through standardized modular construction
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements a nested hierarchical structure where quantum modules are grouped into blocks, which are further organized into layers, and finally stacked vertically to form the complete apparatus. This nested organization enables efficient space utilization and systematic integration of thousands of quantum modules
2Productivity
If the number of quantum modules is increased to achieve one million quantum modules, then operation speed higher than classical computer is realized, but the apparatus becomes very large due to low mounting density
Solution Approach 1:
To accommodate one million quantum modules, the patent employs vertical stacking with multiple layers extending in the third dimension. This allows the system to achieve the required scale for quantum supremacy while maintaining a compact footprint by utilizing vertical space rather than expanding horizontally
Solution Approach 2:
The large-scale quantum computer with one million modules is divided into multiple manageable layers and blocks. Each layer contains a controllable number of quantum modules, and the segmented structure allows for incremental manufacturing, testing, and assembly while achieving the total target of one million modules
