Physicists and engineers have been working on Quantum technologies, like quantum microscopes, for years. The tool enables for in-depth study of the properties of quantum particles and states. Recently, a team from SQC/UNSW Sydney and the University of Melbourne has developed a solid-state quantum microscope. The microscope can manipulate and analyse atomic qubits in silicon. They combined ion implantation and atomic precision lithography techniques to create this microscope. Ion implantation involves implanting high-energy ions into a material, such as silicon. The process is done by accelerating ions and directing them…
