After Google’s Willow in December 2024, two more quantum chips debuted in February 2025: Microsoft’s Majorana 1 and Amazon’s ...

Microsoft set out years ago to develop a topological qubit using Majorana quasiparticles—small and inherently stable, they make perfect candidates for quantum computers. This week, Microsoft ...

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 quantum chip is ...

The new mechanical qubit, however, uses phonons — a type ... energy in the form of phonons — are typically subject to harmonic vibrations at evenly spaced energy levels. This is an issue ...

Error correction is considered the key to the success of quantum computers. This could now be possible with just a handful of ...

“And that’s really how we got here — it’s the particular combination, the quality and the important details in our new materials stack that have enabled a new kind of qubit and ultimately ...

Microsoft's quantum computing scientists announced they have finally realized a long-held goal of building a "topological qubit", the equivalent of a transistor for ordinary chips, that may help ...

Qubit the dog, a loyal companion on the Google blockchain frontier, spends its days fetching quantum insights and sniffing out the future of decentralized tech. When not pondering entanglement and ...
