Heating up A false-colour electron microscope image of the device, which creates entangled pairs of electrons. The green layers are graphene on top of the grey superconductor. The two quantum dots can be seen protruding into the superconductor channel in the centre of the image. The blue metal electrodes are on the top layer and are used to extract the entangled electrons. (Courtesy: Aalto University) A new device that produces entangled pairs of electrons by the application of heat has been unveiled You’ve reached the limit of what you can view on Physics World without registering If you already have an account on Physics World, then please sign in to continue reading If you do not yet have an account, please register so you can Access more than 20 years of online content Choose which e-mail newsletters you would like to receive Want to read more?
