Topological phases of matter can enable highly stable qubits with small footprints, fast gate times, and digital control. These hardware-protected must be fabricated a material combination in which topological phase reliably induced. The challenge: disorder destroy the obscure its detection. This paper reports on devices low enough to pass gap protocol, thereby demonstrating gapped superconductivity paving way for new qubit.
Herein we describe an efficient low temperature (60-160 °C) plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) process for gallium oxide (Ga2O3) thin films using hexakis(dimethylamido)digallium [Ga(NMe2)3]2 with oxygen (O2) on Si(100). The use of O2 was found to have a significant improvement the growth rate and when compared former Ga2O3 processes. yielded second highest rates (1.5 Å per cycle) in terms ALD lowest date typical characteristics were determined. From situ quartz crystal...

We describe a concrete device roadmap towards fault-tolerant quantum computing architecture based on noise-resilient, topologically protected Majorana-based qubits. Our encompasses four generations of devices: single-qubit that enables measurement-based qubit benchmarking protocol; two-qubit uses braiding to perform Clifford operations; an eight-qubit can be used show improvement operation when performed logical qubits rather than directly physical qubits; and topological array supporting...
Dielectric Barrier Discharges operating in CO and CO2 form solid products at atmospheric pressure. The main differences between both plasmas their deposits were analyzed, similar energy input. GC measurements revealed a mixture of CO2, CO, O2 the DBD exhaust, while no was found plasma. A coating nanoparticles composed Fe, O, C produced by discharge, whereas, microscopic dendrite-like carbon structure formed Fe3O4 Fe crystalline phases sample. deposition characterized as an amorphous...
Titanium dioxide films were grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD) using titanium tetraisopropoxide as a precursor and water, ozone, or oxygen plasma coreactants. Low temperatures (80–120 °C) used to grow moisture barrier TiO2 on polyethylene naphthalate. The maximum growth per cycle for processes 0.33, 0.12, 0.56 Å/cycle, respectively.

The fusion of non-Abelian anyons or topological defects is a fundamental operation in measurement-only quantum computation. In superconductors, this amounts to determination the shared fermion parity Majorana zero modes.

In this work, atomic-resolution transmission electron microscopy studies show that in atomic/molecular layer deposited ZnO-zincone [(ZnO)a(Zn-O-C6H4-O)b] multilayer thin films, ZnO crystals grow vertically and continuously through lateral zincone monolayers. When the thickness of is increased from one to few monolayers, growth becomes confined, leading formation discrete ZnO/zincone interfaces accompanied by a decrease roughness. Apart providing understanding on structure hybrid multilayers,...
