- Fabricating quantum devices is challenging due to the ultra-high vacuum, high temperature and high electric current required to manipulate cold atoms. This study introduces, for the first-time, a transformative method to 3D-print complex metallic structures to generate magnetic fields for quantum devices that are extremely challenging to produce otherwise. This publication has led to further feasibility funding (EP/R020442/1) and contributed to the £24M Quantum Technology Hub in Sensing and Timing (EP/T001046/1).
