New DOE Early Career project uses magnetic vortices to uncover hidden sources of loss in superconducting quantum devices
October 8, 2026
Daniel Bafia will develop a new measurement approach that uses magnetic vortices to investigate defects and interfaces that can limit the performance of superconducting quantum devices. The project could provide researchers with a new way to understand and ultimately reduce sources of energy loss in quantum materials.
