The TopoTapered project aims to develop scalable tapered nanowires for manipulating Majorana zero modes, enabling robust quantum computers and accelerating their commercialization.
Projectdetails
Introduction
Quantum computers will revolutionize multiple technology fields, which will have a massive impact on society in areas such as communication, healthcare, machine learning & artificial intelligence, finance, materials research and development, and aerospace designing. Currently, the commercialization of quantum computers for real-life applications is still a long shot due to major technical challenges like decoherence, a process in which the environment interacts with quantum bits and changes their quantum behavior, causing computing errors.
Topological Quantum Computing
Topological quantum computer platforms offer an alternative route where the topological nature of quantum bits protects them from decoherence. Therefore, they do not need error correction protocols that constrain the development of commercial quantum computing systems. These platforms mainly rely on Majorana zero modes, which are topological boundary modes predicted to be decoupled from decoherence.
Topological computation is achieved by the braiding of Majorana zero modes, but their manipulation remains an experimental challenge.
Project Goals
The TopoTapered project aims to:
- Develop tapered nanowires and tapered nanowire networks as a scalable technology for auto-tuning, transportation, and braiding of Majorana zero modes bound at the ends of topological superconducting segments.
- Create an innovative tapered nanowire platform for quantum computers that will support topologically protected quantum bits, making it possible to incorporate the large number of them needed for processing quantum information in quantum computers.
- Develop a simplified quantum computer architecture that will be both robust and scalable, thereby shortening the time to market for quantum computers.
Commercialization Strategy
Furthermore, to ensure the successful commercialization of our innovation, we will:
- Identify our product position in the quantum computing value chain.
- Define the most suitable commercialization plan to establish a sustainable business model for TopoTapered.
