Researchers at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria, along with collaborators in Munich and Madrid, have demonstrated that two superconducting qubits can be entangled by exposure to the same quantum-correlated microwave field, exploiting noise to generate entanglement. This approach, part of dissipation engineering, shows that specific interactions with the environment can prepare qubits in an interesting state without active intervention, marking the first experimental realization of a proposal dating back over 20 years.
