Researchers at ETH Zurich develop a graphene-based quantum device

By: Inspenet, November 9, 2022.
Researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich) have fabricated a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) for the first time. This first superconducting component made from twisted graphene bilayers, in which the two atomic layers rotate slightly relative to each other, is quantum coherent and sensitive to magnetic fields.
