The spin degree of freedom of an electron or a nucleus is one of the most basic properties of
nature and functions as an excellent qubit, as it provides a natural two-level system that is …

Over the past several decades, quantum information science has emerged to seek answers
to the question: can we gain some advantage by storing, transmitting and processing …

The aim of this review is to provide quantum engineers with an introductory guide to the
central concepts and challenges in the rapidly accelerating field of superconducting …

This review describes a new paradigm of electronics based on the spin degree of freedom of
the electron. Either adding the spin degree of freedom to conventional charge-based …

Spintronics, or spin electronics, involves the study of active control and manipulation of spin
degrees of freedom in solid-state systems. This article reviews the current status of this …

In the light of the tremendous progress that has been made in raising the transition
temperature of the copper oxide superconductors (for a review, see ref.), it is natural to …

After a brief introduction to the principles and promise of quantum information processing,

This review describes recent groundbreaking results in Si, Si/SiGe, and dopant-based
quantum dots, and it highlights the remarkable advances in Si-based quantum physics that …

It is often assumed that it is not possible to alter the properties of magnetic materials once
they have been prepared and put into use. For example, although magnetic materials are …

The ability to control matter at the atomic scale and build devices with atomic precision is
central to nanotechnology. The scanning tunnelling microscope can manipulate individual …
