Rydberg atoms, atoms whose outermost electrons are highly excited but not ionized, might be just the thing for processing quantum information. These outsized atoms can be sustained for a long time in a quantum superposition condition — a good thing for creating qubits — and they can interact strongly with other such atoms, making them useful for devising the kind of logic gates needed to process information.
