Superconducting qubits are a promising route to achieving large-scale quantum computers.
A key challenge in realising large-scale superconducting quantum processors involves …

Nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) foils have been in use at the Spallation Neutron Source as
primary stripper foils for charge exchange injection since the machine's inception. NCD's low …

The significant self-heating effect severely restricts the performance and reliability of nano-
electronic devices. Accordingly, it is very important to understand the process and …

Carbon foils are regularly used for charge exchange injection in beamline accelerators. As
beamlines increase the beam power, the thermal durability and longevity of the stripper foils …

Abstract The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is currently preparing for a Proton Power
Upgrade project that will increase the operating power of the beamline. Due to this increase …
