Showing the value of using a full toolbox of techniques for evaluating quantum materials

Only by using the combination of polarised neutron reflectometry, X-ray spectroscopy and magnetotransport have researchers been able to characterise individual layers of a potential candidate for building future quantum computers. Scientists have been searching for many years for materials that can be used to conduct electricity with minimal resistance and drastically increase energy efficiency. Novel conducting materials are also potential candidates for quantum computing devices.
