This Chip Could Be the Massive Breakthrough We’ve Been Waiting for in Quantum Computing
Microsoft is claiming to have created a topological qubit—something engineers have been trying to achieve for years.
Microsoft Says It Has Created a New State of Matter to Power Quantum Computers
Microsoft’s new “topological qubit” is not based on a solid, liquid or gas. It is another phase of matter that many experts did not think was possible.
Microsoft’s New Majorana 1 Processor Could Transform Quantum Computing
The processor uses qubits that can be measured without error and are resistant to outside interference, which the company says marks a “transformative leap toward practical quantum computing.”
Microsoft quantum breakthrough promises to usher in the next era of computing in ‘years, not decades’
Microsoft says it has developed a breakthrough quantum processor based on a new state of matter, giving it a clear path to achieve quantum computing’s long-term promise of solving some of the world’s most difficult problems.
A new Microsoft chip could lead to more stable quantum computers
Microsoft has long been working on an alternative that could cut down on the overhead by using components that are far more stable. These components, called Majorana quasiparticles, are not real particles. Instead, they are special patterns of behavior that may arise inside certain physical systems and under certain conditions.
Microsoft’s first step to scalable quantum computing
After many years of work, Microsoft has unveiled its first quantum hardware, the Majorana 1 processor. Let’s grok its topoconductor and tetron-based qubits.
Microsoft's Majorana 1 breaks the quantum computing barrier — and my brain
