A research team led by Cornell University Assistant Professor Valla Fatemi has developed a low-temperature fabrication process for tantalum-based superconducting qubits, resolving a major manufacturing bottleneck for superconducting quantum processing units (QPUs). Detailed in Nature Materials ("Krypton-sputtered tantalum films for scalable high-performance quantum devices"), the team substituted standard argon gas with krypton gas during magnet…
