Hohmann / MCQST) A research team from Garching and Vienna discovered a remarkable echo effect - it offers exciting new possibilities for working with quantum information. If the spins of phosphorus atoms in silicon are cleverly excited with microwave pulses, a so-called spin echo signal can be detected after a certain time. Surprisingly, this spin echo does not occur only once, but a whole series of echoes can be.
