Asymmetrical Crystal Qubit Structure

Quantum breakthrough: Scientists extend Qubit’s lifespan

Scientists have shown that they can extend the life of a molecular qubit by changing the structure of the surrounding crystal to be less symmetrical. The asymmetry shields the qubit from noise, allowing it to retain information five times longer than if it were housed in a symmetrical structure. Credit: MIT/Dan Laorenza Stability in asymmetry …

Fluxonium qubits bring the creation of a quantum computer closer

Part of the quantum processor. Credit: Sergei Gnuskov/NUST MISIS Russian scientists from MISIS University of Science and Technology and Bauman Moscow State Technical University were one of the first in the world to implement a two-qubit operation using superconducting fluxonium qubits. Fluxoniums have a longer life cycle and higher precision of operations, so they are …
