浪花直播 Interests

Wisbey's research interests include materials for quantum computing, microwave resonators and amplifiers, and neutron detectors. Currently, he uses coplanar waveguides as a tool to probe different materials including defects in Si(100), boron nitride, and graphene. Noise in electronics is a fundamental issue that occurs in many different areas including 2D materials and superconducting circuits. Decoherence is generated by materials which quantum bits are made of, this is a major obstacle preventing a working quantum computer. His background in surface science is an invaluable tool he uses to address important questions about materials used in quantum computing. Wisbey works with many undergraduate students, which is helping to train the quantum scientists and quantum engineers of tomorrow.
