Even in a perfectly isolated system, the universe still fluctuates. These tiny, unavoidable disturbances, known as quantum noise, set the ultimate limit on what we can measure and control at the smallest scales.
Learn what quantum noise is and how researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) are developing new techniques to understand and mitigate quantum noise, from novel qubit designs that stay stable longer to AI-powered measurement methods that improve how quantum systems are controlled.
The goal? Quantum computers powerful enough to discover new medicines and materials, and detectors sensitive enough to observe dark matter and neutrinos.
