This study reports a breakthrough in magnon coherence times by identifying short-wavelength dipole-exchange modes that persist up to 18 microseconds. By overcoming the previous nanosecond lifetime limit of these bosonic quasiparticles, researchers have significantly advanced the feasibility of on-chip quantum information processing and hybrid quantum systems at the nanoscale.
New class of magnons live a hundred times longer

Discovery could help in the development of on-chip quantum information technologies that can be scaled down to the nanoscale The post New class of magnons live a hundred times longer appeared first on Physics World.

(Courtesy: Ian Ehm) Bosonic quasiparticles such as magnons show much promise for enabling on-chip quantum information technologies that can be scaled down to the nanoscale, but their too-short lifetime has held back such applications until now.…
