“Heavy” Electrons Hold the Key to a New Type of Quantum Computer


Discovery of Planckian time limit offers new opportunities for quantum technologies. A collaborative team of researchers in Japan has identified "heavy fermions"—electrons with greatly increased effective mass—that display quantum entanglement controlled by Planckian time, the fundamental unit of
