Absolute Coherence - Resonance over Resistance — a Conceptual Framework for Quantum Technologies
Abstract
This essay proposes 'Absolute Coherence' as a design principle that treatsdecoherence not as loss, but as a context-dependent modulation of an ever-presentcoherent ground state. In contrast to conventional quantum error correction, thisapproach motivates passive, integrative strategies that treat coherence as the defaultcondition. Drawing on a concrete technical proposal (phononic bandgaps combinedwith decoherence-free subspaces in NV-center ensembles), it is argued that thisperspective may address key scaling bottlenecks in quantum computing — inparticular the reliance on millikelvin cooling and active error correction. The essayclearly distinguishes analogy from isomorphism and invites interdisciplinarydiscussion.
