@informaq.bsky.socialNSF and UKRI commit $10M to support 8 transatlantic research teams advancing molecular quantum systems. Focus: preserving quantum coherence in complex molecules and engineering molecular-scale spin qubits for sensing and information processing.
@informaq.bsky.socialResearchers engineered qubits from genetically encodable proteins using bottom-up biology instead of traditional manufacturing, creating quantum systems within living cells for biomedical sensing and disease detection.
@informaq.bsky.socialConfining molecular spin qubits within 2D van der Waals materials dramatically extends coherence times by over 100-fold, enabling deterministic placement and stable quantum states critical for integrated quantum devices.
