The Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to John Clarke, Michel Devoret, and John Martinis for their groundbreaking quantum mechanics research. Their discoveries, particularly macroscopic quantum tunnelling in electric circuits, are fundamental to modern technology and pave the way for powerful quantum computers. The laureates will share the 11 million Swedish kronor prize money for their work dating back to the 1980s.
