A simple chemical tweak could supercharge quantum computers

2 months ago 42

Even the fastest supercomputers struggle with certain complex tasks, such as discovering new medicines or breaking advanced encryption. Quantum computers could one day handle these challenges, but they depend on rare materials known as topological superconductors that are extremely difficult to create and control.

Researchers at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (UChicago PME) and West Virginia University have now demonstrated ...
