Diamonds boost processing speeds in quantum computers
An electromagnetic waveguide placed on diamond crystals can deliver fields strong enough to change the quantum state of electrons in just under one nanosecond.
Article Summary
Scientists at UC Santa Barbara have made important advances in the field of spintronics by demonstrating the ability to electrically manipulate, at room temperatures, the quantum states of electrons trapped in the atomic structural defects of diamond crystals. Despite previous indications to the contrary, such quantum states can be manipulated very quickly, even at gigahertz frequencies, paving the way to significantly faster quantum computing.
