Tiny magnetic waves could unlock quantum computers the size of a penny

Source: Originally published on ScienceDaily Quantum Computers on July 2, 2026.

A major breakthrough in quantum technology has turned magnons, tiny magnetic waves once considered too short-lived for practical use, into promising carriers of quantum information. Researchers extended their lifetime by nearly 100 times, reaching up to 18 microseconds, and discovered that the main limitation is not a law of physics but the purity of the material itself. That means future improvements could come from better manufacturing rather than entirely new discoveries.
