Delft Scientists Split Electron Pairs in Superconductors TU Delft "Scientists at Stichting FOM and Kavli Institute of Nanoscience Delft have demonstrated that electrons that normally travel through superconductors in pairs can be seperated while retaining their quantum mechanical kinship. The formation of electron pairs - so-called Cooper pairs - is such a fundamental property of current flow in superconductors that the Delft experiment is considered a breakthrough. It lays the foundation for the realization of a superconducting entangler capable of injecting pairs of entangled electrons into nanoelectronic circuits, an important building block of the quantum computer scientists have been dreaming of for years."
