New InAsSb Quantum Well with Niobium for Hybrid Devices

Researchers have developed a novel platform based on indium arsenide antimonide (InAsSb) surface quantum wells with in situ deposited niobium (Nb). This advance is significant for creating hybrid devices that combine the superconducting properties of niobium with the semiconducting characteristics of InAsSb. The integration of these materials allows for the exploration of complex quantum phenomena and has implications for quantum computing and spintronics.

Astronaut Christina Koch to Join NASA Event in Philadelphia

NASA astronaut Christina Koch will participate in a public event in Philadelphia on Sunday, October 4, as part of the agency's "Inspiration Tour." Her appearance will take place during the American football game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Los Angeles Rams. Koch will highlight the United States' strengths in space exploration and aeronautical innovation.

Christina Koch, an engineer and explorer, is known for having spent a total of 338 days in space, setting a record for the longest single space mission by a woman. This event is part of NASA's efforts to inspire the public and share the achievements and future of space exploration.

“Koch will highlight the United States' strengths in space exploration and aeronautical innovation.”
