Scalable quantum computing will open completely new possibilities for many
industrial and academic research and development efforts, comparable to
emergence of integrated circuits in the 20th century.
Cutting-edge technology
The shuttling-based trapped-ion quantum processing node offers a route to increased
scalability,
while retaining a high level of control.
Small subsets of qubits are kept within a
microstructured trap array. Dynamic qubit register reconfiguration
operations offer an effective all-to-all connectivity. Optical addressing of individual ions in a
small qubit
register is used to perform laser-driven quantum gate operations at high fidelity.
Hybrid approach
The combination of the high-performance computer Mogon II based at JGU Mainz and the trapped-ion
quantum computer allows to realize computationally expensive hybrid algorithms.
Example applications for such algorithms are catalyst research in chemistry and quantum machine learning.
Trapped-Ion
Atomic ions exhibit no fabrication variance. All qubits feature the same properties.
Shuttling-Based
Effective all-to-all connectivity due to dynamic register
reconfiguration operations.
Laser-Driven
Laser-driven quantum gate operations performed at high fidelity.
