Quantum Motion has delivered the first full-stack silicon quantum computer using CMOS technology to the UK’s NQCC. This scalable system integrates a Quantum Processing Unit with industry-standard software. It marks a significant step toward commercially viable quantum computing.
IonQ has delivered its first quantum computer, IonQ Forte Enterprise, to the European Innovation Center in Arlesheim, Switzerland. Operating at a record algorithmic qubit count of #AQ36, the system enhances computational capabilities and marks IonQ’s initial commercial quantum system in Switzerland. The partnership with QuantumBasel strengthens IonQ’s global data center presence and supports advanced research and commercial applications.
Isotropically Purified Silicon: An Essential Ingredient for Commercial Quantum Computing Silex launches Silicon Enrichment Project Dec. 16, 2019 — Project underpinned by an offtake agreement
Silicon-based qubits have spin-orbits which are manipulated with magnetic fields more readily than other means available. Designers from the University of Wisconsin-Madison created the experimental device, based on silicon. Research scientists from Purdue University and the Technological University of Delft conducted the experimentation. The spin-orbit strength was found to be dependent on magnetic fields from external sources coupled with the silicon surface material; where qubits reside as quantum dots.
Intel is one of the forerunners in the race to quantum supremacy. Alongside Microsoft, IBM, and Google, Intel hopes to press on to success with its silicon-based quantum processors.
