Leading quantum at an inflection point
The MIT Quantum Initiative is taking shape, leveraging quantum breakthroughs to drive the future of scientific and technological progress.

Researchers achieved a type of coupling between artificial atoms and photons that could enable readout and processing of quantum information in a few nanoseconds.

MIT researchers developed a photon-shuttling “interconnect” that can facilitate remote entanglement, a key step toward a practical quantum computer.

All promotions and appointments will take effect July 1, 2025.

By determining how readily electron pairs flow through this material, scientists have taken a big step toward understanding its remarkable properties.

Berggren, who develops technologies to push the envelope of what is possible with photonics and electronic devices, succeeds Joel Voldman.

The advance holds the promise to reduce error-correction resource overhead.

Nanoscale transistors could enable more efficient electronics
Researchers are leveraging quantum mechanical properties to overcome the limits of silicon semiconductor technology.

By emulating a magnetic field on a superconducting quantum computer, researchers can probe complex properties of materials.

The technique leverages quantum properties of light to guarantee security while preserving the accuracy of a deep-learning model.
