There have been many remarkable products in Microsoft's 50 years of history, but these 5 were really impactful in our lives.

Microsoft says it has developed a breakthrough quantum processor based on a new state of matter, giving it a clear path to achieve quantum computing’s long-term promise of solving some of the world’s most difficult problems.

Microsoft has unveiled Majorana 1, a quantum chip with a Topological Core architecture, paving the way for a one-million-qubit quantum processor.

Microsoft said they created a computer chip that uses a new state of matter that will be capable of running the most powerful computers ever — a potential breakthrough for quantum computing that many believed was decades away.

Microsoft has made progress with topological qubits, but they’re still far from a full-scale quantum computer.

Majorana 1 chip has been the talk of the week in the quantum computing industry, reflecting the field’s weekly advancements.

Microsoft’s Majorana 1 just changed the quantum game. Could this breakthrough bring us closer to singularity faster than we thought?

The processor uses qubits that can be measured without error and are resistant to outside interference, which the company says marks a “transformative leap toward practical quantum computing.”

Microsoft has long been working on an alternative that could cut down on the overhead by using components that are far more stable. These components, called Majorana quasiparticles, are not real particles. Instead, they are special patterns of behavior that may arise inside certain physical systems and under certain conditions.
