Researchers make air-stable, ultrathin superconductors, for more scalable quantum devices

SMRTR summary

MIT researchers developed a way to grow ultrathin superconductors that stay stable in open air, solving a long-standing problem with fragile materials that previously degraded instantly. By sandwiching niobium diselenide beneath graphene before growth, they created wafer-scale films that could make quantum computing hardware significantly more compact.
