Triplet Superconductors: How the NbRe Alloy Discovery Unlocks Energy-Efficient Quantum Computing

February 22, 2026 8 minutes read 63

Physicists at Norway’s NTNU and the QuSpin research center have experimentally identified the Niobium-Rhenium (NbRe) alloy as a triplet superconductor — a material that transports both electricity and electron spin with zero resistance at 7 Kelvin. The discovery enables Majorana fermion-based topological quantum computing,
