The Nobel winners carried out experiments in the mid-1980s with an electronic circuit built of superconductors and demonstrated that quantum mechanical properties could be made concrete on a much larger, macroscopic scale.
This year's Nobel Prize in Physics has provided opportunities for developing the next generation of quantum technology, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said in a statement.
Last year's prize was won by US scientist John Hopfield and British-Canadian Geoffrey Hinton for breakthroughs in machine learning that spurred the artificial intelligence boom.
