Maybe the research should be done the other way around: only do quantum research on materials and geometries using scaled-down mass-production equipment ("wafer", photolitography, ion implantations, vapor deposition, etc).
If you can run 400 times faster a chip even with logic gates of huge sizes compared to what we have now and in the near future, the net performance increase may be massive... would need only a liquid helium, or if we are lucky, a liquid nitrogen tank to run it (would be a good proof of concept).
This type of "discovery" seems abundant, and as far as I can remember, at the end of such articles there is often a "... but we need more funds to research a way to mass-produce gates using such materials and increase insanely the operating temperature".
Only super-experts in this very domain could differenciate quacks/charlatans from "wow, we may have actually something here", and even them could miss something because all that is hard.
