Researchers at the Quantum Systems Accelerator have announced significant progress in building scalable, stable quantum computers focusing on trapped-ion technology.
Their work marks a series of engineering milestones pushing quantum computing toward practical use.
A new ion trap chip can store up to 200 ions and significantly reduces power loss by redesigning its internal layout.
Developed and tested with collaborators at Duke and Cornell in the US, this design allows for the future creation of far larger qubit systems without overheating or energy waste.
At the University of Maryland, a team achieved parallel quantum gate operations using different spatial directions, overcoming prior interference issues.
However, this innovation boosts processing speed and accuracy, offering more efficient handling of time-sensitive quantum tasks.
