Microsoft unveils Majorana 1 quantum chip powered by topological superconductivity

According to Odaily, Microsoft has unveiled Majorana 1, a groundbreaking quantum chip that operates on a unique state of matter known as topological superconductivity. The achievement, published in the scientific journal Nature, utilizes a special material called topoconductor to create and control Majorana particles, potentially extending the power of quantum computing to solve previously intractable problems. Topoconductors are semiconductors that can also function as superconductors, conducting electricity with minimal energy loss at extremely low temperatures. Manufacturing this material requires atomic-level precision and temperatures as low as minus 400 degrees Celsius. Despite the complexity and cost, Microsoft emphasizes the benefits of this effort

Science does not stand still. Thanks for the interesting information.👍🥜
