Artist: Bar Dvir. Majorana particles are one of several promising candidates for stable quantum bits, the building blocks of quantum computers. Researchers and engineers from QuTech and Eindhoven University of Technology have created Majorana particles and measured their properties with great control. These Majoranas are so-called -poor man's Majoranas-, based on two quantum dots in a nanowire, which could be scaled up to a larger chain of quantum dots with more resilient Majorana behavior. Majorana particles are one of several promising candidates for stable quantum bits, the building blocks of quantum computers. The researchers.
