A Twist on Quantum Bits: Tubular Carbon Nanomaterial Makes Ideal Home for Spinning Qubits

Insider Brief Argonne National Laboratory researchers, joining scientists from several research institutions and universities, have discovered a method for introducing spinning electrons as qubits in a host nanomaterial. Test results indicate record long coherence times — the key property for any practical qubit. The team chemically alter the atomic structure in a carbon nanotube in […]
