A new type of quantum bit (qubit) that stores information in a quantum dot with the help of an ensemble of nuclear spin states has been unveiled by physicists in the UK and Austria. Led by Dorian Gangloff and Mete Atatüre at the University of Cambridge, the team created a collective quantum state that could be used as a quantum register to store and relay information in a quantum communication network of the future.
