Quantum Computer in the Solid State

Building a complete quantum computer based on cutting-edge German technology is the goal of the QSolid project. The project centres on quantum bits – or qubits for short – of very high quality, i.e. with a low error rate. The quantum computer will be integrated into Forschungszentrum Jülich’s supercomputing infrastructure at an early stage and will contain several next-generation superconducting quantum processors, including a “moonshot” system that has been proven to exceed the computing power of conventional computers. The first demonstrator will go into operation in mid-2024, and will make it possible to test applications as well as benchmarks for industry standards.

The QSolid project acknowledges the support of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) within the framework programme "Quantum technologies – from basic research to market".
