Quantum information: Computing with a single nuclear spin in silicon

A research team, including members from the London Centre for Nanotechnology (LCN), has created the first working quantum bit based on the nuclear spin of a single phosphorus atom in silicon, opening the door for dramatically improved data processing in ultra-powerful quantum computers of the future….
