Why included?

Marcus’s experimental work connects quantum-information goals with the behavior of electronic materials. A collaborative double-quantum-dot experiment demonstrated preparation, manipulation and readout of two-electron spin states, including techniques to suppress dephasing. Later work on epitaxial semiconductor–superconductor nanowires improved control of the material interface, an essential issue for hybrid devices. These contributions illustrate two routes through solid-state quantum hardware. His current professional identification follows the University of Washington faculty page, which records his move there in 2023.
