Majorana Particles: The Researchers Quest Pass on to Next Level

A scientific team led by Attila Geresdi to research in Majorana particles has recently paved way to pass the research of the Majorana particle to the next level. They had illustrated a new technology altering certain description for future control of Majorana particles. The Majorana states, unusual quantum particles, only survive under very special condition.

While in theory projected in 1938, the researcher team of Leo Kouwenhoven inm 2012 were determined for the first time in a chip. The key constituent is a nanowire ariled by a superconducting part’, states Attila Geresdi, directing researcher of the study.

These magical particles are the structure blocks of topological quantum computation, a bright path in quantum technology that is chased by various research groups in cooperation with Microsoft.

The topological quantum bits are as such bastioned from faults, that means that if you execute a quantum procedure, it ever works. In the road towards the quantum computing based on Majorana particles there are big obstacles on the way to face, but this recent great work open the grand doors to a new program of quantum experiments. Through this new method both primal physics and scientific challenges towards the activity of Majorana states can be explored.

The Quest for Majorana Particles

The Majorana particles, named after Ettore Majorana, are used in elementary particle physics to mathematically describe fermions (i.e., particles with a half-numbered spin) when they are equal to their own antiparticles: so-called majorana fermions.

This property implies that the particles described must not bear any electrical charge. The researchers across the globe has great quest for this Majorana particles which are the building blocks for the topological quantum computer. Generally, the realization of this Majorana particles is quite difficult as they exists only in a very particular circumstances. Majorana research through Nanowires

Semiconductor nanowires represent an interesting research area at the interface between basic research and technology. Analysis of the growth process, properties and possible applications is part of the research on semiconductor nanowires.

Successive semiconductor nanowires have been successfully produced and characterized by various growth methods in the electron microscope. Further studies, e.g. Of the electrical and optical properties are currently being carried out. The superconducting propinquity phenomenon in semiconductor nanowires has newly alter the work of new superconducting edifice.

The researchers across the globe in colloboration with Microsoft are conducting researches to find out the Majorana using the Nanowire covered with a super conducting layer. Fortunatly the team of researchers found that the Majorana states only rely on measuring of electron flow through Nanowires.

The Delft research team joined hands with scientists from Yale University combines a Nanowire to a Microwave Spectrometer which does not disturbs Majorana's in any manner. The researchers across the globe are greatly facing hurdles on the research for Topological quantum computing.

But, this wonderful work of the researchers has paved way and pass quantum computing to the next level. This amazing work of these researchers can be found at Nature Physics.
