Now Microsoft says it has charted a new course with its Majorana 1 chip, an innovation it calls a Topological Core architecture. Unlike conventional qubits made from known semiconductors or ...

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's Majorana 1 chip is a groundbreaking innovation in quantum computing, paving the way for scalable and efficient quantum processors.

Microsoft has unveiled a new quantum chip named Majorana 1 which it claims will be able to solve major, real-world problems within decades. Though others are skeptical of the claims, Microsoft ...

Microsoft is announcing a new Majorana 1 processor that’s part of a quantum computing breakthrough. Researchers have spent 17 years to reach this milestone.

Microsoft has taken a very different approach to build its “topological qubits.” They have used what are called Majorana particles, first theorized in 1937 by Italian physicist Ettore Majorana.

The result, which you can read about in this paper, is Majorana 1, a quantum chip that comes with a new Topological Core infrastructure, described in an article in Nature, that Microsoft says harkens ...
