Noise-Free Labs
Deep inside the IBM Research lab in Zurich, Switzerland are some of the quietest places on earth. The patented noise-free labs in the Binnig and Rohrer Nanotechnology Center are ideally suited to build and study the tiniest nanoscale structures. Get a 360° view of the Raman microscopy system used to provide a fingerprint by which molecules can be identified.

Bringing IBM inventions to life
Designers and machinists in the model shop at the IBM T.J. Watson Research Center bring researchers’ inventions to life. With their motto of “a napkin sketch will do,” the model makers have designed and contributed to numerous IBM Research breakthroughs, including installation of the dilution fridges that hold the IBM Quantum Experience's superconducting qubit devices; the development of Watson’s mechanical thumb, used to press the buzzer on Jeopardy!; building a water-based cooling system for the Blue Gene supercomputer; and constructing pollution sensor housing for the Green Horizons project in China to help Beijing and other cities better manage air pollution.
