Various systems can be employed to implement qubits, with one approach being the utilization of intrinsic spin a quantum property related to a particles magnetic moment of an electron. Electrons have two spin states: spin up and spin down. Qubits based on spin can exist in a combination of these states and can be entangled, allowing the state of one qubit to be inferred from another. By leveraging the extremely sensitive nature of a quantum entangled state to environmental noise, quantum sensing technology is expected to enable sensing with higher resolution and sensitivity compared to traditional techniques. However, so far, it has been challenging to entangle four electrons and make them respond to external molecules, that is, achieve quantum sensing using a nanoporous MOF.

We normally talk about this revolution in a scientific and technical sense, Lamas-Linares told the Vatican News. We call it a revolution because it concerns certain aspects of quantum mechanics, such as entanglement. This is a quantum effect that is considered paradoxical, that is, it is one of the things that Einstein considered completely impossible and that could not be part of a scientific theory. And now we dont see them as problems or as philosophical problems, but we see them as resources, in the sense of how we can create them measurably, how we can manipulate them and how we can use them to build better sensors, better computers and so on
