Microsoft's Majorana 1 quantum processor is the world's first to be built on a "topological core architecture," using a new topoconductor material to host Majorana particles that serve as the ...

The Majorana 1 chip itself, designed to accommodate a million qubits and about the size of your palm, signals that quantum’s “million-qubit” era may be closer than we think.

Microsoft’s Majorana 1 chip carves new path for quantum computing Microsoft today introduced Majorana 1, the world’s first quantum chip powered by a new Topological Core architecture that it expects ...

Microsoft this week unveiled a chip that it claims uses a new state of matter and will be able to produce industrial-scale quantum computers in years – not decades, as previously expected.

Firm evidence of Majorana bound states in quantum dots has been reported by researchers in the Netherlands. Majorana modes appeared at both edges of a quantum dot chain when an energy gap suppressed ...

There isn't yet a roadmap to show Microsoft can scale its chip to the million topological qubits required to make a working quantum computer.

Microsoft says the new chip, the Microsoft Majorana 1, is "the world’s first quantum chip powered by a new Topological Core architecture" that it expects will "realize quantum computers capable ...

The design of the Majorana 1 processor is supposed to fit up to a million qubits, which may be enough to realize many significant goals of quantum computing —such as cracking cryptographic codes ...

Microsoft’s Majorana 1 chip is billed as the company’s first quantum computing processor. The excitement surrounding this million-qubit dream, with its unique architecture and reliance on ...

Microsoft (MSFT) unveiled its new Majorana 1 quantum chip Wednesday, intensifying the competition in quantum computing. Yahoo Finance Technology Editor Dan Howley joins Market Domination hosts ...

Even for a Majorana-based quantum computer, such as the one announced by Microsoft, one operation—known as T-gate—won’t be achievable without errors.
