Researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have combined high-throughput computation with precise fabrication techniques to discover and engineer quantum defects, which have potential applications in computing and telecommunications. They identified a promising defect in tungsten disulfide by replacing a sulfur atom with cobalt, enhancing the material’s quantum properties. This breakthrough method accelerates the discovery of high-performance quantum materials, and their findings are shared in a publicly accessible quantum defect database to encourage further research in the field.
