The superconducting diode effect allows for nonreciprocal, dissipationless transport. It has the potential to enhance transfer current efficiency compared to the traditional semiconducting equivalent ...

Electronic states that resemble molecules and are promising for use in future quantum computers have been created in superconducting circuits by physicists at RIKEN. The most obvious advantage of ...

Superconductors, which allow electrical currents to flow without resistance, hold out exciting possibilities for electronics. That’s because superconducting circuits and devices promise to harness a ...

Physicists from Forschungszentrum Jülich and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology have uncovered that Josephson tunnel junctions—the fundamental building blocks of superconducting quantum ...

Scientists have shown that a type of qubit whose architecture is more amenable to mass production can perform comparably to qubits currently dominating the field. With a series of mathematical ...

RF SQUIDs (radio frequency Superconducting quantum interference device) only need one Josephson junction to work. This is used for magnetic field sensing. It would not need high current or other high ...

Supporting the high performance and reliability needed for artificial intelligence (AI), data centers and cloud computing requires powerful and efficient integrated circuits (ICs). More semiconductor ...
