Unconventional interface superconductor could benefit quantum computing

A team of scientists, led by physicist Peng Wei at the University of California, Riverside, has developed a new superconductor material with potential applications in quantum computing. This material could be a candidate for a “topological superconductor,” which uses a delocalized state of an electron or hole to robustly carry quantum information and process data. […]
