New superconducting material could pave the way for the next stage in quantum computing by behaving as qubits in a more powerful system, scientists have proposed. When you purchase through links on ...

Scientists at University College Cork (UCC) in Ireland have developed a powerful new tool for finding the next generation of materials needed for large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computing. The ...

A University of California (UC) Riverside research team, led by physicist Peng Wei, has developed a two-dimensional interface superconductor by combining trigonal tellurium and gold. This new material ...

Microsoft unveiled a new type of computing chip on Wednesday that will specifically help enable advancements in practical, fault-tolerant quantum computing. The chip, called Majorana 1, is the world’s ...

A multi-institutional team of scientists has developed a new superconductor material that could potentially be used in quantum computing and be a candidate 'topological superconductor.' A ...

By building an atomic equivalent of the critical Josephson junction, scientists can now study how energy is lost and excitations form.

A superconductor made from germanium, a material commonly used to build computer chips, could one day create better and more reliable quantum computers. Superconductors are materials that conduct ...

Researchers have discovered an unusual "quantum echo" in superconducting materials, dubbed the Higgs echo. This phenomenon arises from the interplay between Higgs modes and quasiparticles, producing ...

Microsoft announced Wednesday that it has invented an entirely new kind of quantum computer. Its new quantum chip, Majorana 1, is a quantum processor analogous to transistors in classical computers’ ...
