Using first-principles simulations, they showed nitrogen-vacancy centers positioned near these line defects maintain or improve quantum properties, including enhanced coherence times due to symmetry breaking that creates clock transitions resistant to magnetic noise. The findings suggest using dislocations as scaffolds for arranging qubits into ordered arrays, offering a new approach to building scalable solid-state quantum interconnects. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
