Massive Microsoft quantum computer breakthrough via entirely new state of matter (!!!)
Microsoft just announced a massive quantum computer breakthrough that uses an entirely new state of matter. The new quantum computer uses topological superconductors to create stable qubits with low error rates.
Topological superconductors enable stable qubits by utilizing Majorana zero modes to protect quantum information from decoherence.
The result: Microsoft should have a fault-tolerant usable quantum computer this decade. As in, before 2030.
In this TechFirst, we talk with Microsoft's head of quantum hardware, Chetan Nayak, who has been working on solving this problem for literally 19…
