A quantum drum that stores quantum states for record-long times

Researchers have improved the coherence time of a previously developed quantum membrane dramatically. The improvement will expand the usability of the membrane for a variety of different purposes. With a coherence time of one hundred milliseconds, the membrane can for example store sensitive quantum information for further processing in a quantum computer or network.Researchers have improved the coherence time of a previously developed quantum membrane dramatically.
