Faster Molecular Simulations Identify Promising Diamond Defects for Quantum Computers and Sensors

Faster molecular simulations identify promising diamond defects for quantum computers and sensors

A faster way of finding the best diamond-based materials for quantum computers has been developed by a researcher at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL). The new approach has already identified promising materials for practical quantum sensors and computers that could one day transform scientific research as a whole. The research was recently published in the journal ACS Central Science and has alread…

Princeton Lab Finds Faster Way To Design Quantum Materials With Chemistry

Princeton Plasma Physics Lab’s new approach uses quantum chemistry to accelerate the design of materials, like nitrogen-vacancy diamonds, for advanced quantum sensors and computers.

Chemists Recast Diamond Qubits as Molecules, Accelerating the Search for

A Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory scientist has developed a faster molecular simulation method that identifies promising diamond-based defects for room-temperature quantum computers and sensors.

Creating the Technology of the Future: Quantum Chemistry Unlocks New Possibilities

A PPPL researcher has developed a faster way of finding the best diamond-based materials for quantum computers. The new approach treats qubits, the basic units of information in quantum computers and the key components of quantum sensors, as isolated molecules. It has already identified promising materials for practical quantum devices. The new research also shows that qubits can be understood through chemistry, enabling scientists to design and…
