Peer-reviewed Majorana-readout milestone associated with Microsoft’s 2025 topological-qubit program. Demonstrates single-shot interferometric parity measurement in InAs-Al hybrid devices, a key enabling ingredient for future tetron-style measurement-only control. It does not by itself establish a full 8-tetron processor or a protected logical-gate demonstration.
Key Results
- Single-shot interferometric fermion-parity measurement in an InAs-Al hybrid device.
- Signal-to-noise ratio of 1 in 3.6 s at optimal flux values.
- Parity-state dwell time longer than 1 ms and assignment error probability of about 1%.
- Builds directly on the earlier topological-gap-protocol device program.
