Using ultrathin materials to reduce the size of superconducting qubits may pave the way for personal-sized quantum devices. MIT researchers used a 2D material hexagonal boron nitride to build much smaller capacitors for superconducting qubits, enabling them to shrink the footprint of a qubit by two orders of magnitude without sacrificing performance.
