Themed collection: Nanoscale quantum technologies

Nanoscale quantum technologies

Guest edited by Qing Dai, Chao-Yang Lu and Zhipei Sun

We are delighted to introduce a new online collection published in Nanoscale that provides a snapshot of recent progress in quantum technologies, including quantum materials, computing, sensing, imaging, photonics, optics and more, which we hope will inspire future developments.

Materials and structures at the nanoscale play a key role in various current and emerging quantum technologies. In the last few decades, we have witnessed significant progress in nanoscience and nanotechnology, which has enabled great successes from fundamental research to applications in quantum technologies, facilitating completely new horizons in this area.

You can explore the collection and read the introductory editorial from our guest editors below, with all articles free to access until the end of September 2023.
