Scientists at the Fermilab-led SQMS Center investigate qubits at the atomic level to identify sources of various impurities. By having a deeper understanding of how impurities affect how long a qubit can store information, scientists will be able to figure out how to further improve the performance of quantum computers.
A recipient of this year’s IEEE PAST Award, Romanenko was cited “for outstanding contributions to science and technology of radio frequency superconductivity for particle accelerators.”
