Science Daily  January 11, 2021 An international team of researchers (Switzerland, the Netherland) has created the qubits in the form of “hole spins” that can be switched from a stable idle mode to a fast calculation mode. The spins can be selectively coupled — via a photon, for example — to other spins by tuning their resonant frequencies. They can be coherently flipped from up to down in as little as a nanosecond allowing up to a billion switches per second. For their experiments, the researchers used a semiconductor nanowire made of silicon and germanium wire that has a diameter […]
