Developing Topological Quantum Bits to Create Efficient Quantum Computers

Researchers at PSI have compared the electron distribution below the oxide layer of two semiconductors. The investigation is part of an effort to develop particularly stable quantum bits –and thus, in turn, particularly efficient quantum computers. They have now published their latest research, which is supported in part by Microsoft, in the scientific journal Advanced Quantum Technologies.

Making High Quality Spin Qubits Based on Chromium Defects in Silicon Carbide

Quantum computers may be able to solve science problems that are impossible for today's fastest conventional supercomputers. Quantum sensors may be able to measure signals that cannot be measured by today's most sensitive sensors. Quantum bits (qubits) are the building blocks for these devices. Scientists are investigating several quantum systems for quantum computing and sensing applications.
