The qubit: there and back again

Scalable semiconductor quantum processors will need more than good qubits. They also need a practical way to connect them. In a new study, published in Nature, QuTech researchers show that it is possible to entangle electron-spin qubits while they are on the move. They then used this capability to teleport a quantum state a ...
