The future of quantum computing is trending towards modularity, as companies and researchers seek to overcome the limitations of squeezing more qubits onto a single chip. Fabrication and connectivity challenges have prompted a shift toward linking multiple quantum devices to create larger, more powerful computers capable of tackling real-world problems. The focus is on developing technologies that enable the interconnection of quantum processors, as single computers face limited processing capacity and potential service disruptions.
One approach to modular quantum computing involves quantum communication networks (QCNs), which leverage quantum mechanics to transmit quantum information. QCNs promise to link quantum computers and quantum sensors, enabling distributed quantum computing and sensing. Distributed quantum computing harnesses the capabilities of individual quantum computers distributed across different locations to collectively perform quantum computations. Mitsubishi Electric and partners have also signed a joint research agreement to develop scalable quantum information processing by connecting multiple quantum devices in practical environments.
VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and IQM Quantum Computers have launched Europe’s first 50-qubit superconducting quantum computer, now open to researchers and companies. QuantWare, a startup from the Netherlands, claims to have created a 3D chip architecture that offers the fastest route to a 1-million qubit quantum computer. PsiQuantum claims to have solved scalability issues that have long plagued photonic approaches. Delft-based Q*Bird and Eurofiber secure €1M grant to advance quantum-secured communication, this initiative is part of the QUEST project. QuantWare raises €20M to scale quantum processors for next-gen computing.
