Nobel Prize winners show how superconducting circuits can exhibit quantum behavior, leading to transformative technologies.

New studies of the “platypus of materials” help explain how their atoms arrange themselves into orderly, but nonrepeating, ...

John Clarke, John Martinis and Michel H. Devoret will share this year’s physics Nobel for their discovery in the mid-1980s ...

Think of it this way: if you roll a ball toward a wall, it will bounce back. That’s normal physics. But in the quantum world, a tiny particle might sometimes pass straight through the wall, as if the ...

Virtual particles may not be real, but they help physicists track how forces move, and allow for incredibly precise ...

Gold truly deserves to be called a precious metal. Now, scientists have found a way to extract gold from e-waste using ...

Discover the groundbreaking work of John Clarke, Michel Devoret, and John Martinis in the field of quantum physics. Learn how ...

The discovery could significantly reduce the production costs of fuels, chemicals, and materials. A research team from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities College of Science and Engineering and ...

EPFL physicists and their collaborators have directly observed and controlled a rare double-dome pattern of superconductivity in twisted trilayer ...

Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded John Clarke, Michel Devoret and John Martinis the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics for experimental demonstration of quantum effects.

Three scientists won the Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for research on the strange behavior of subatomic particles called quantum tunneling that enables the ultra-sensitive measurements achieved by ...

On Oct. 3, 1950, three Bell Labs scientists received a patent for a "three-electrode circuit element" that would usher in the ...
