In a landmark achievement for quantum computing, Microsoft announced Majorana 1 in February 2025, marking it as the world's first Quantum Processing Unit (QPU) powered by a Topological Core. This breakthrough is built upon a novel class of materials termed "topoconductors," which enable the creation of stable topological qubits. Topological qubits are theoretically less susceptible to noise and decoherence, offering intrinsic fault tolerance due to their quantum information being encoded in the braiding of topologically protected quasiparticles known as anyons. This design principle aims to provide strong resistance to errors, a critical challenge in quantum computing. The Majorana 1 processor is designed for unprecedented scalability, with the potential to integrate up to one million qubits on a single chip, and is reported to cut error correction overhead by approximately ten times compared to older methods, achieving an impressive error rate of just 1%. This development signifies a potential paradigm shift towards intrinsic fault tolerance in qubits, simplifying the complex path to scalable quantum computers by embedding error resistance at the fundamental hardware level, and was further substantiated by research published in *Nature* in 2025.
