Chemical Physics Ph.D. Student I-Lin Liu Co-authors Paper in Science
A potentially useful material for building quantum computers has been unearthed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), whose scientists along with colleagues from the University of Maryland and Ames Laboratoryhave found a superconductor that could sidestep one of the primary obstacles standing in the way of effective quantum logic circuits.
Research results from the team, which also includes scientists from the University of Maryland and Ames Laboratory, appear August 16, 2019, in the journal Science. Their paper details the material's uncommon properties, which are interesting from the perspectives of both technological application and fundamental science.
Co-authors of the paper included chemical physics Ph.D. student I-Lin Liu and Johnpierre Paglione, a professor of physics at UMD and the director of UMD’s Center for Nanophysics and Advanced Materials.
