Totally agree with Vincent Mourik -- “At a fundamental level, the approach of building a quantum computer based on topological Majorana qubits as it is pursed by Microsoft is not going to work.”

🔬 Scientists have captured images of electron molecular crystals—a breakthrough that could propel quantum computing applications and quantum simulations! ⚛️ UC Berkeley U.S. Department of Energy DOE Office of Science newscenter.lbl.gov/2024/11/07/sci…

This is a very attractive #summerschool for #undergrad in #Physics.

Microsoft quantum computing claim still lacks evidence

Nice work by 花栗哲郎 nature.com/articles/s4156…

Nice paper by our friend Lingyuan finally got online. Congrats!

New from Kavli Nanoscience Institute at Caltech and colleagues: discovery of an unexpected superconducting order in 2D iron materials, made possible with STM wizardry! #KavliNano #Superconductivity #Quantum kni.caltech.edu/news/caltech-l…

1D conduction channels of NiS2 could be originated by obstructed Wannier charges. A project carried out with my besties 🥰 arxiv.org/abs/2504.02063

In the UNISOKU NewsLetter2025, we featured the research group of Prof. Doohee Cho from Yonsei University in Korea, who uses the USM1200. Check it out! unisoku.co.jp/pdf/nl2025/NL2… ＜Cho Lab＞ sites.google.com/yonsei.ac.kr/q…

Happy birthday, Max Planck! 🎂The physicist, pianist, #NobelPrize winner, #quantum trailblazer & timeless thinker was born #OTD 1858 in Kiel: his discoveries in the field of #physics forever changed how we understand energy & matter!🎉

Welcome our first PhD student – Shamarita Deb! Shamarita finished her master's thesis on quantum simulation using coupled photonic waveguides at TU Kaiserslautern. Shamarita started last week in our group and will be working on imaging vortices in unconventional superconductors.

We asked 5000 researchers what they thought of this behaviour. What do you think? Check out all of the questions here: nature.com/immersive/d415…

🌟 Welcome to #QUANTUMatter2025! Let’s kick off an exciting week of cutting-edge #QuantumScience, innovation, and global collaboration in Grenoble! Stay curious, stay inspired — the future of quantum starts here. #QuantumTech #QuantumFuture #ScienceConference

The results of Prof. Ingmar Swart from Utrecht University (using USM1300 and the amplifier for shot noise) have been published on SciPost Phys. Check it out! #USM1300 #ShotNoise scipost.org/10.21468/SciPo…

This week Jacky is presenting our work at #QUANTUMatter2025 in the beautiful French Alps. In celebrating 100 years of quantum physics, we also contribute to it with our idea of tracking down 'poisoning' quasiparticles—a major issue in qubit operations—with atomic resolution.

✨Thank you to all participants, sponsors & exhibitors who made #QUANTUMatter2025 a success! Your energy and innovation lit up Grenoble! 🚀 See you next year in vibrant Barcelona, April 26–30, 2026, for #QUANTUMatter2026! 🇪🇸🌍 #QuantumTech #QuantumFuture #ScienceCommunity

Last week in the SuperC 2025 Summer workshop, our incoming postdoc Xiao Zhang joined the discussion on the pathways to increase the critical temperature of superconductors toward room temperature. He will start in July in our lab, working on MBE growth of superconductors.

Today’s the big day — our STM has arrived! 🥳 All 7 crates📦are now safely stored in the basement. Huge thanks to everyone involved, and a special shoutout to our technician Ole for making it all run so smoothly. Unpacking will happen in a couple of weeks — stay tuned!
