Last February, Microsoft introduced – with much social media fanfare – their future quantum computing chip: Majorana 1. What exactly is a quantum computer and what are the possible building blocks to create one? The UT-groups of Floris Zwanenburg and Alexander Brinkman both work on building blocks of quantum computers. How does the research conducted at the UT relate to the Microsoft chip? Join Esther van de Logt MSc and Prof dr ir Floris Zwanenburg in a conversation about quantum technology, the history of quantum bits and more specifically spin quantum bits. Ir Femke Witmans and Prof dr ir Alexander Brinkman will discuss the implications of Microsoft’s Majorana 1, what a Majorana actually is and what research the UT does related to Majorana states.
