Designed to scale to a million qubits, the first iteration of what Microsoft is calling a topological core has eight qubits, which can help prove many of the requirements for quantum processing.

Microsoft today said its new quantum chip is the first to be powered by a new Topological Core architecture that “will realize quantum computers capable of solving meaningful, industrial-scale ...

Microsoft’s iteration relies on what the company refers to as topological qubits. At the heart of Majorana 1 is a topological core that can be scaled to a million qubits on a single chip.

It powers Majorana 1, the first quantum processing unit built on a topological core. We believe this breakthrough will allow us to create a truly meaningful quantum computer not in decades, as ...

Microsoft went on to say its Majorana 1 is the world’s first topoconductor, a chip combining topological qubits with superconductor properties.

Microsoft has unveiled a new quantum processing unit, the first to be built on a topological core. Majorana 1 is named after previously-hypothesized Majorana particle, which Microsoft now believes ...
