Physicists measure how long graphene qubits hover in "alive/dead" superposition

New Atlas   -   Scientific News Websites

Practical quantum computers may be another step closer to reality – and like so many technologies, we have graphene to thank for it. The bits of information in quantum computers (qubits) can famously exist in two states at once, and now re...
