This week, Microsoft made a bold claim that could shift expectations, unveiling Majorana 1, a quantum processing unit built on a topological core using a new class of materials called topoconductors. This marks not just a theoretical leap, but a tangible step forward in the real-world pursuit of fault-tolerant quantum computing.

A quantum “miracle material” could support magnetic switching, a team of researchers at the University of Regensburg and University of Michigan has shown. his recently discovered capability could help enable applications in quantum computing, sensing and more. While earlier studies identified that quantum entities called excitons are sometimes effectively confined to a single line within the material chromium sulfide bromide, the new research provides a thorough theoretical and experimental demonstration explaining how this is connected to the magnetic order in the material.

Today, Yunger Halpern’s work as an award-winning physicist also straddles two centuries and two worlds – thermodynamics and quantum mechanics.

Quantum Computing Inc.
