Halfway Through: The QSolid Quantum Computer Project Is Heading Towards the Prototype of the 10-Qubit Demonstrator

Halfway Through: The QSolid Quantum Computer Project Is Heading Towards the Prototype of the 10-Qubit Demonstrator

July 23, 2024
Since January 2022, QSolid has been working on a high-quality quantum computer “Made in Germany” based on superconducting quantum chips. After 30 months, the large-scale project, led by Prof. Frank Wilhelm-Mauch from Forschungszentrum Jülich, has reached the mid-term. In the first half of the project, the team of over 160 people from 25 partner institutions was able to develop key technologies for an initial 10-qubit prototype of the final demonstrator. This created the basis for the implementation, further development and scaling of the system in the remaining course of the project until December 2026.
