A quantum leap in mechanical oscillator technology

Over the past decade, scientists have made tremendous progress in generating quantum phenomena in mechanical systems. What seemed impossible only fifteen years ago has now become a reality, as researchers successfully create ...

Millisecond coherence reached for fluxonium qubit

A team of physicists at the University of Maryland's Joint Quantum Institute and Quantum Materials Center has achieved millisecond coherence while testing the properties of a fluxonium qubit in a quantum circuit. In their ...

Researchers make a quantum computing leap with a magnetic twist

Quantum computing could revolutionize our world. For specific and crucial tasks, it promises to be exponentially faster than the zero-or-one binary technology that underlies today's machines, from supercomputers in laboratories ...

New method to find Majorana particles tested for the first time

Fifteen years ago, an alternative technique to look for the elusive Majorana particles was conceived theoretically. But no one carried out the experiment, until now. Physicist Jianfeng Ge and his colleagues from the Allan ...
