"In what we call "Quantum Material Josephson Junctions" (QMJJs), we replace the classical barrier material in JJs with a quantum material barrier, where the quantum material's intrinsic properties can modulate the coupling between the two superconductors in novel ways...

We depend on the electric power system more than ever to supply our residential, commercial and industrial sectors. To this end, new technologies and tools are being developed to provide a reliable, flexible, resilient and secure generation, transmission, and distribution system. High temperature superconductivity (HTS) is one of the technologies that has the potential to do this.

October 5, 2020 (PN5)  When John Martinis left Google last spring, we all wondered where he would land. It turns out he's on just about the other side of the world at the Australian start-up, Silicon Quantum Computing (SQC).

In his own words (from the article published on their website), “I’m hugely excited to join the team at SQC,” says Professor Martinis. “Building a quantum computer is my life-long ambition. If we can build one successfully at scale, it will be a transformational achievement with tremendous impact for humankind. I chose to come to SQC because of the promise of the unique approach in fabrication at the atomic level. No one else in the world can do what these guys are capable of.“
