Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, have the potential of ...

Researchers found that gold “super atoms” can behave like the atoms in top-tier quantum systems—only far easier to scale. These tiny clusters can be customized at the molecular level, offering a ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — By using photons and electron spin qubits to control nuclear spins in a two-dimensional material, researchers at Purdue University have opened a new frontier in quantum science ...

Although elusive, the quantum spin has led to some of the deepest insights we now know. Quantum mechanics has a lot of weird stuff - but there are things that everyone agrees that no one understands.

For two decades, a deceptively simple question has split condensed‑matter physicists: do the electrons in gold quietly align ...

An international research team has succeeded for the first time in measuring the electron spin in matter - i.e., the curvature of space in which electrons live and move - within "kagome materials", a ...

A new discovery led by Princeton University researchers could upend our understanding of how electrons behave under extreme conditions due to the laws of quantum physics. The finding provides ...

Quantum technologies have the potential to help create next-generation computers, sensors and communication networks—but doing so requires building a scalable platform in which quantum bits (“qubits”) ...

As published Monday (Aug. 15) in Nature Materials, the research team used electron spin qubits as atomic-scale sensors, and also to effect the first experimental control of nuclear spin qubits in ...
