Physicists have proposed a way to extract the internal quantum states of electron wave packets by analyzing how those packets scatter off atoms. The approach, grounded in theoretical derivations ...

To realize practical quantum computers, a large number of quantum bits (qubits) will be required. Semiconductor spin qubits offer advantages such as high scalability and compatibility with existing ...

Silicon quantum dot spin qubits 1,4,5 have recently demonstrated single-qubit and two-qubit fidelities well above 99% (refs. 6,7,8,9), satisfying thresholds for error ...

How can data be processed at lightning speed, or electricity conducted without loss? To achieve this, scientists and industry alike are turning to quantum materials, governed by the laws of the ...

The ability to precisely study and manipulate electrons in electron microscopes could open new possibilities for the development of both ultrafast imaging techniques and quantum technologies. Over the ...
