Sydney student helps solve quantum computing problem with simple modification

"We just made the smallest of changes to a chip that everybody is building, and all of a sudden it started doing a lot better.

"It's quite amazing to me that nobody spotted it in the 20-or-so years that people have been working on that model."

The research paper was published in the journal Nature Communications: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-021-22274-1
