Microsoft joins quantum race with breakthrough chip
Tech giant Microsoft unveiled a new computer chip on Wednesday that it says could transform everything from fighting pollution to developing new medicines, joining Google and IBM in arguing that the promise of quantum computing is closer to reality.
New state of matter powers Microsoft quantum computing chip
Majorana 1 relies on ‘topological superconductivity,’ a never-before-seen theoretical form of matter.
Microsoft Says It Has Created a New State of Matter to Power Quantum Computers
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.
A new Microsoft chip could lead to more stable quantum computers
Microsoft has long been working on an alternative that could cut down on the overhead by using components that are far more stable. These components, called Majorana quasiparticles, are not real particles. Instead, they are special patterns of behavior that may arise inside certain physical systems and under certain conditions.
Microsoft's new chip could make quantum computers useful soon
Microsoft has announced the Majorana 1 as a chip that could make quantum computers truly useful sooner than expected.
What makes Microsoft’s new quantum computing chip ‘Majorana 1’ different?
Microsoft has announced the arrival of Majorana 1, a new quantum chip that produces more reliable and scalable qubits than its predecessors. Qubits are the building blocks of quantum computers.
Microsoft reveals Majorana 1 quantum chip as quantum computing wars heat up
Microsoft on Wednesday debuted its Mojarana 1 quantum computing chip. The news comes just two months after Google announced its own quantum chip.
Quantum Computing Has Arrived; We Need To Prepare For Its Impact
We are on the emerging pathway to the new era of quantum computing. We must now prepare for the exponential benefits and risks of quantum technologies.
Microsoft's Majorana 1 breaks the quantum computing barrier — and my brain
It seems like only last week that the most complex computing mysteries in my life were which emojis will remain socially acceptable in 2025 and how to decipher the Windings font. However, Microsoft has well and truly thrown a wrench into the works after announcing its Majorana 1 quantum computing chip on Wednesday.
This Chip Could Be the Massive Breakthrough We’ve Been Waiting for in Quantum Computing
Microsoft is claiming to have created a topological qubit—something engineers have been trying to achieve for years.
Microsoft’s New Chip Brings Quantum Computing Closer to Reality
Microsoft has announced a groundbreaking advancement in quantum computing with the introduction of its Majorana 1 chip. This innovative chip promises to bring the dream of quantum computing closer to reality in a matter of years rather than decades.
