Connects silicon-spin quantum research with semiconductor manufacturing, combining contributions to atomic-scale quantum control with the development of Quantum Motion’s silicon computing architecture.
arXivQuantum MotionMorton spans fundamental control of spins in silicon and the practical demands of producing a quantum computer. His coauthored nuclear-spin experiment demonstrates the first side of that connection, while founding Quantum Motion addresses architecture and industrial fabrication. The company’s current team page identifies him as founder and CTO. Phasecraft also identifies him as a director and co-founder, so those affiliations are complementary rather than mutually exclusive. This profile emphasizes documented research and founding contributions without assigning company-wide inventions to him alone.
