Fourier Transform: Quantum Noise’s Newest Nemesis

A collaborative effort between physicists and chemists at the University of Colorado has led to the development of Fourier transform noise spectroscopy. This method simplifies the process of analyzing quantum noise, thereby facilitating advancements in quantum computing and sensing.

“Noise” is one of the biggest challenges in quantum technology and quantum sensing. These seemingly random environmental disturbances can disrupt the delicate quantum states of qubits, the fundamental units of quantum information.
