photo of computer chip CHIP OFF A NEW BLOCK: Rochester researchers are part of a team that has developed a semiconductor chip that uses individual electrons to relay information. Part of Rochester’s initiative to better understand quantum behavior and develop novel quantum systems, the work is considered an important proof of concept on the road to quantum computing technology. John Nichol, an assistant professor of physics, and PhD students Yadav Kandel and Haifeng Qiao joined researchers at Purdue University in the research, the results of which were published in the journal Nature.
