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

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

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

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

Five MIT faculty and staff, along with five alumni, are honored for electrical engineering and computer science advances.
