- Universal dynamics and microwave control of programmable resonant electro-optic frequency combs
- One- and two-dimensional cluster states for topological phase simulation and measurement-based quantum computationNature Physics, Published online: 11 March 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03179-6 Measurement-based quantum computing implements quantum algorithms by performing sequences of measurements on special classes of entangled states, such as cluster states. This approach has now been demonstrated on a superconducting quantum processor.
- Magnetic field-induced momentum-dependent symmetry breaking in a kagome superconductorNature Physics, Published online: 11 March 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03205-7 Disentangling intertwined orders in quantum materials is challenging. Now, photoemission spectroscopy experiments show that magnetic fields can be used to disentangle such orders in a kagome superconductor.
- When percolation triggers fatigueNature Physics, Published online: 10 March 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03210-w Everyday objects often fail from repeated stress. A study shows that fatigue failure in glasses is governed by damage percolation and predictable from early-cycle energy dissipation.
- Geometric origin of particle and dislocation dynamics during grain boundary migrationNature Physics, Published online: 09 March 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03165-4 Grain boundaries in polycrystalline systems display complicated dynamics. Now, a general framework is presented that predicts the microscopic dynamics of both particles and dislocations underlying grain boundary migration in two-dimensional colloids.
- Logical multi-qubit entanglement with dual-rail superconducting qubitsNature Physics, Published online: 06 March 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03211-9 Quantum computers often exhibit a bias in the type of error that is the most common or severe. Entanglement has now been demonstrated for qubits encoded with an error correction code that is designed to efficiently handle biased errors.
- Cavity-enhanced spectroscopy in the deep cryogenic regime for quantum sensing and metrologyNature Physics, Published online: 06 March 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03204-8 Operating cavity-based spectrometers at low temperature has several advantages, such as improved sensitivity. Now, a cavity-enhanced spectrometer is demonstrated down to 4 K.
- High-field triplet superconductivity in a transition metal dichalcogenide superlatticeNature Physics, Published online: 06 March 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03185-8 BaTa2S5, which consists of alternating layers of TaS2 and Ba2TaS4, is shown to host a triplet superconducting phase at high magnetic field. This triplet phase emerges from another—more conventional—superconducting state.
