PsiQuantum was founded on a simple premise: useful quantum computing requires a million-qubit, fault-tolerant system. We chose photonics for its scaling advantages and spent nearly a decade building an ultra-low-loss silicon photonics platform to make that path possible. That platform is foundational to our path to useful quantum computers.... show more

NEW: Inside PsiQuantum's Silicon Photonic Chipset *Never-Before-Seen* With Er-Xuan Ping, SVP, Barium Titanate (BTO) Development Backdrop: the U.S. government just announced a $2B push into domestic quantum computing manufacturing - but what does that actually fund? The U.S. Department of Commerce Department recently awarded PsiQuantum $100M to accelerate development of BTO, giving a rare look into the underlying manufacturing stack required to scale fault-tolerant quantum computing. We profiled PsiQuantum last September following its $1B Series E, including how the company produces the world’s highest-performing optical switch - a core component of its silicon photonics platform. PsiQuantum is currently the only company or institution in the world manufacturing this BTO material for optical switches at 300mm scale. While the company built this silicon photonics platform for fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC)*, the implications may extend far beyond quantum itself. As AI data centers increasingly shift from copper to optical networking, PsiQuantum’s photonics stack could also become foundational infrastructure for next-generation AI systems. *Fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC) refers to quantum computers that can continue operating accurately even when individual quantum bits (“qubits”) are noisy or error-prone.

6,100-Qubit Processor Shatters Quantum Computing Record | David Nield, ScienceAlert Another major quantum computing record has been broken, and by a considerable margin: physicists have now built an array containing 6,100 qubits, the largest of its type and way above the thousand or so qubits previous systems contained. It's the work of scientists from the California Institute of Technology, who used cesium atoms as their qubits, trapping them in place with a complex system of lasers that acted as tweezers to keep the atoms as stable as possible. Qubits differ from the classical bits of traditional computers by exploiting what's known as a superposition: not just binary states of 1 or 0, but a spread of probabilities that allows for algorithms that can solve problems considered out of reach of conventional computing methods. Related: Quantum Advantage: A Physicist Explains The Future of Computers A lot of qubits will be needed to make quantum algorithms practical, however. One reason for these large arrays is error correction, which helps overcome the inherent fragility of the qubit by providing a surplus to double-check the machine's operation. "This is an exciting moment for neutral-atom quantum computing," says physicist Manuel Endres. "We can now see a pathway to large error-corrected quantum computers. The building blocks are in place." There was no single breakthrough that enabled this jump in qubit numbers, but rather a series of engineering advancements in many key areas – from the laser tweezers to the ultra-high (very low pressure) vacuum chamber. Stability has also been a problem for quantum computing systems. The innovations in this latest array kept qubits in a superposition state for almost 13 seconds – almost ten times longer than previous configurations had managed. What's more, individual qubits could be manipulated with 99.98 percent accuracy, establishing a significant benchmark in the programmability of quantum technology. "Large scale, with more atoms, is often thought to come at the expense of accuracy, but our results show that we can do both," says physicist Gyohei Nomura. "Qubits aren't useful without quality. Now we have quantity and quality." To make quantum computers a practical alternative to modern supercomputers, more qubits and even greater levels of stability will be required. Experts are tackling the problem from several different angles, which is why records for some types of quantum computer don't necessarily apply to others. Next, the researchers need to work on exploiting entanglement, which will enable the system to make the leap from storing information to actually processing it. Not too far in the future, we could be using these computers to discover new materials, matter, and fundamental laws of physics. "It's exciting that we are creating machines to help us learn about the Universe in ways that only quantum mechanics can teach us," says physicist Hannah Manetsch. Read more:

I literally think some of the CEOs of the quantum computing companies will go jail." "If we had an optical computer, I think it would have a 1000x to a 1,00,000x performance." "Compared to biological computing or quantum or some of the other alternative computings, those aren't really that exciting."

A quantum system can complete a cycle and return to its original physical state, yet retain a measurable trace of the journey. During slow, cyclic evolution, its wavefunction can acquire an additional phase that depends on the path taken through parameter space. This is the Berry phase. For a spin-½ system, the geometric phase is related to the solid angle enclosed by the path on the Bloch sphere, γ = −Ω/2. Its deeper significance is that quantum evolution can retain information about the geometry of a path, even after the system returns to its starting point.
