Scientists achieve direct experimental realization of dual-type entangling gates

Physics General News

15 January 2025

To develop scalable and reliable quantum computers, engineers and physicists will need to devise effective strategies to mitigate errors in their quantum systems without adding complex additional components. A promising strategy to reduce errors entails the use of so-called dual-type qubits....

Fast control methods enable record-setting fidelity in superconducting qubit

Physics General News

Quantum computing promises to solve complex problems exponentially faster than a classical computer, by using the principles of quantum mechanics to encode and manipulate information in quantum bits (qubits)....

Neutron star measurements place limits on color superconductivity in dense quark matter

Physics General News

14 January 2025

At extremely high densities, quarks are expected to form pairs, as electrons do in a superconductor. This high-density quark behavior is called color superconductivity. The strength of pairing inside a color superconductor is difficult to calculate, but scientists have long known the strength's...

Quasiparticle research unlocks new insights into tellurene, paving the way for next-gen electronics

Nanotechnology News

14 January 2025

To describe how matter works at infinitesimal scales, researchers designate collective behaviors with single concepts, like calling a group of birds flying in sync a "flock" or "murmuration." Known as quasiparticles, the phenomena these concepts refer to could be the key to next-generation...

All-flat phononic band structure controls sound and vibrations by trapping energy

Physics General News

14 January 2025

A team of UConn College of Engineering (CoE) researchers have achieved a major milestone in the field of phononics with the first experimental demonstration of an all-flat phononic band structure (AFB). Phononics concerns the study of sound and heat control....
