Stockholm: The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to John Clarke, Michael H. Devoret, and John M. Martinis for their revolutionary discoveries in macroscopic quantum mechanical tunneling and energy quantization in electrical circuits — landmark achievements that have reshaped the foundations of modern quantum science.
Announced by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, the honor recognizes groundbreaking research the trio conducted at the University of California, which has significantly advanced the global pursuit of quantum computing and next-generation electronic technologies.
This year marks the 118th Nobel Prize in Physics, continuing the legacy of honoring transformative contributions to science.
In 2024, the award went to John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton for their trailblazing work in machine learning and artificial intelligence, while earlier this week, American and Japanese scientists jointly received the 2025 Nobel Prize in Medicine for remarkable progress in biomedical research.
