Part of an excellent lecture given by Professor John Preskill at Caltech where he describes the potential use of topologically protected states in quantum computing.
'Standard' qubits have been implemented in diverse physical systems, Now, topological qubits can be created using a pair of Majorana fermions and could potentially be used for decoherence-free quantum computing.
Majorana Fermions are quasiparticles, theoretically predicted to form as excitations in superconductors.
