Simulating material pairings could unlock topological quantum computers

Quantum ZeitgeistSeptember 15, 20262 min read

A new theoretical and computational approach simulates the “proximity effect”, where a material can become superconducting by being placed next to another superconducting material, potentially opening up novel applications in quantum technologies. This tool could contribute to the development of topological superconductors, considered key to realizing topological quantum computers, a frontier in quantum computing attracting major scientific and economic interest.

Researchers at SISSA have developed a new simulation method to model how one material can become superconducting when placed near another. This computational approach addresses a key…
