First silicon-based, long-lasting nuclear spin qubit created by quantum researchers

2013-04-19 17:16:35| Extremetech

Researchers at the University of New South Wales in Australia have created the first quantum bit (qubit) based on the nuclear spin of an atom, within a silicon transistor. This breakthrough is significant for two reasons: The qubit produced by the researchers is highly stable -- and it's in silicon, meaning it can be wired up and controlled electronically, just like a conventional computer chip.
