Microwaves can control and stabilize diamond qubits, addressing their main challenge:
Researchers from Germany’s Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have devised a method to precisely control diamond qubits using microwaves.
In case you’re wondering what is a diamond qubit, here’s a simple explanation —When a tin atom replaces a carbon atom in a diamond lattice, it leads to the creation of tin vacancy (SnV) centers.
The SnV centers are defects with exceptional optical and electronic properties, and therefore they can be used as qubits. Since these qubits result from defects in diamond lattices, they are called diamond qubits.
