Scientist Solves Hard Problems Building Quantum Particle Detectors

John Lajoie is a builder — not of buildings or everyday machines, but of detectors with a special purpose. A physicist at the Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), Lajoie has shaped his career around finding hard-to-solve problems and coming up with new ways to tackle them.

Study Shows How Scientists Trap Single Electrons to Build Silicon Spin Qubits

Qubits are the quantum counterpart to the bits used in conventional computers. Bits have a "0" and "1" state that is defined by electric charge. In a type of qubit called a silicon spin qubit, the "0" and "1" states are defined by electron spin.
