Smart cable sharing gives quantum computers a big boost

A major obstacle in the development of powerful quantum computers is the growing number of cables required to control a computer as the number of qubits increases. Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden have now demonstrated that several qubits can share the same cable—without significantly increasing computation time. Their study is the most comprehensive of its kind and could become an important piece of the puzzle in developing quantum computers. These computers have the potential to revolutionize such areas as drug development and logistics.

Phospholipid asymmetry helps explain extracellular vesicle surface charge and therapeutic quality

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoscale lipid bilayer particles secreted by cells that mediate intercellular communication by transporting biomolecules such as proteins and RNA. Among them, exosomes have attracted significant attention for applications in diagnostics and therapeutics, including cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. However, standardized criteria for evaluating their quality and functionality remain insufficient.

A silicon-compatible path toward scalable quantum systems

Beginning in the 1950s, silicon transformed the electronics industry by enabling smaller and faster devices that could be reliably manufactured at scale. More than six decades later, silicon-based semiconductors remain at the heart of many modern technologies, including so-called "classical" computers.
