How do you find novel materials with very specific properties—for example, special electronic properties which are needed for quantum computers? This is usually a very complicated task: various compounds are created, in which potentially promising atoms are arranged in certain crystal structures, and then the material is examined, for example in the low-temperature laboratory of TU Wien.How do you find novel materials with very specific properties—for example, special electronic properties which are needed for quantum computers?
