Successful Demonstration of a Superconducting Circuit for Qubit Control Within Large-Scale Quantum Computer Systems
In support of the development of large-scale superconducting quantum computers, researchers with the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), one of the largest public research organizations in Japan, in collaboration with Yokohama National University, Tohoku University, and NEC Corporation, proposed and successfully demonstrated a superconducting circuit that can control many qubits at low temperature.
The Quantum Computing Materials Research Project MATQu Has Concluded, Having Discovered New Methods to Improve Superconducting Qubits
The European Materials for Quantum Computing (MATQu) research project recently held its final review meeting, officially announcing the end of this three-year research project. The project aimed at establishing approaches for producing superconducting qubit elements, such as resonators and Josephson Junctions structures, by using 300 mm wafer-scale CMOS-compatible processes. Through tireless efforts, the project has identified new approaches to improve superconducting qubits, which will help accelerate the roll-out and time-to-market of quantum computers.

Expansion of Jülich’s Quantum Computer Infrastructure
Expansion of Jülich’s Quantum Computer Infrastructure
Forschungszentrum Jülich is getting another quantum computer. The Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) has acquired a 5-qubit quantum system from the German–Finnish manufacturer IQM Quantum Computers. The IQM Spark quantum computer is scheduled to go into operation in July 2024 as part of Jülich’s JUNIQ quantum computing infrastructure and will be connected to JSC’s classical supercomputers. This gives researchers the opportunity to investigate how calculations on classical supercomputers can be accelerated by quantum computers.
