Microsoft’s Majorana 1 was introduced this Thursday.
Microsoft says he found the long -sought after way to a million quibits and to put him in a single chip that can fit his palm.
Microsoft presented the Majorana 1a new quantum processor driven by an architecture known as the topological nucleus, with which it expects to achieve commercial quantum orders capable of solving complex problems in years rather than decades.
For such a USA “The First” Topoconductor of the Worlda type of innovative material that can observe and control major particles to produce qubits – Basic components of quantum computers – more reliable.
According to the study at Nature on Wednesday, this new architecture offers “a clear way” to put a million quibits in a single chip that can fit in the palm.
“This is a necessary step so that quantum orders offer solutions that, in fact, transform our world, such as the decomposition of microplastics into harmless by -products or the invention of materials that self -refine to construction, industry or health,” wrote to Microsoft in.
The topoconductor is a special category of material that can create a completely new state of matter. Not a solid, liquid or gaseous state, but a topological stateexplained the company.
This allows the production of a stable that is fast, small and digitally controllable.
“Just as the invention of semiconductors has allowed smartphones, computers, and all the electronics around us today, the top -chip types and the new type of chip offer a way to develop quantum systems that can reach a million quibits. Thanks to this, will be able to address the most complex problems in our world“, He anticipated.
The quantum world works according to Quantum Mechanics Lawswhich are not those of physics, who govern the world that is seen. The particles are called QBits, or Quantum Bits, Analogs to Bits, or ‘some’ and ‘zeros’, used on computers and digital devices.
QBits are sensitive to disturbances in their surroundings, which causes their disintegration and loss of information. An implicit challenge is to develop a qubit that can be measured and controlled, as well as protecting it from the dangers of surroundings.
“Whatever you are doing in the quantum space must have a way for one million quibits. If not, it will hit a wall before it reaches the scale where it can solve the really important problems that motivate us, ”said Nayak. “In fact, we were able to find a way for a million“Microsoft member Chetan Nayak said.
