5.3.3 Qubit implementation in nanowire networks

Course subject(s) Module 5. Topological quits

In the final video of this module, Attila will introduce you to qubit implementation in nanowire networks. He will show some real-life implementations of topological qubits which are actively being researched around the globe. When will researchers be able to have first experimental demonstration of this intriguing qubit? 

Main takeaways

  • The way to performing braiding is using a Y-junction.
  • In order to measure the states, degeneracy has to be broken by splitting off states.
  • It remains to be seen which geometry will lead to the very first experimental demonstration of a topological qubit.
