Microsoft's Majorana 1 quantum computing chip uses a new kind of superconductor
Microsoft has introduced Majorana 1, a chip for quantum computing, which it said will enable computers to solve incredibly difficult industrial-scale problems in mere years instead of the decades current machines need.
Microsoft debuts new superconductor chip designed for quantum computing
The newly termed “topoconductor,” Majorana 1, is designed to support large qubit data processing for a future quantum computer.
New state of matter powers Microsoft quantum computing chip
Microsoft says its researchers have created a new quantum computer processor that relies on a never-before-seen state of matter. The technological leap—called Majorana 1—represents a major step forward towards an era of powerful quantum computers that unlock currently unachievable advancements across artificial intelligence,
Satya Nadella explains why Microsoft's quantum 'breakthrough' is so important
Microsoft has unveiled its new Majorana 1 chip, powered by topological qubits. CEO Satya Nadella called it a "breakthrough" in quantum computing.
Microsoft creates chip it says shows quantum computers are 'years, not decades' away
Microsoft on Wednesday unveiled a new chip that it said showed quantum computing is "years, not decades" away, joining Google and IBM in predicting that a fundamental change in computing technology is much closer than recently believed.
