A first wave of stocks at the start of the decade — comprising IonQ, Rigetti and D-Wave — highlighted the most mature quantum ...

A cluster of recent experiments and theoretical studies has produced the strongest evidence yet that spin-triplet superconductivity can be reliably generated and controlled at material interfaces, a ...

Quantum computing breaktrhroughs including new hardware, smarter algorithms, and clearer signs of “quantum advantage,” bring ...

Removing excess iron reveals FeTe as a superconductor, and its properties can be engineered using layered structures and moiré effects.

Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could outperform classical computers on some advanced tasks. These systems rely on qubits, the fundamental ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Separate two superconductors with a thin layer of material and something strange happens. Their superconductivity — a property driven by paired electrons that allows electricity to ...

A Majorana fermion is a particle that would be identical to its antiparticle. Such an object has not yet been found. However, ...

“One of the major challenges in quantum technology today is finding a way to perform computer operations with sufficient accuracy,” Linder said. For years, physicists have hunted for intrinsic triplet ...
