“we used the quantum material Nb3Br8, which is a 2D material like graphene”

Ugh. Graphene, or any other material, is not actually 2-dimensional. It may be only one atom thick, but it still has a measurable thickness.

Two superconducting diodes are one step away from a superconducting transistor.

This is very good news but …

No quantum PC in our future. The cryogenic requirement would rule that out if nothing else did.

I question the energy savings. It takes a lot of energy to cool to liquid nitrogen temperature (77 degrees K) and even more for the liquid helium cooling they are probably using now.

But good news nevertheless.
