A new record has been set for extremely precise control over qubits, the building blocks of quantum computers. This advance could lead to quantum computers that make fewer errors – if it can be ...

Recently in material science news from China we hear that [Hailin Peng] and his team at Peking University just made the world’s fastest transistor and it’s not made of silicon. Before we tell you ...

For decades, the semiconductor industry has been laser-focused on shrinking silicon transistors, but Peking University researchers believe the future might lie in changing materials entirely. In a ...
