Phys.org  February 15, 2024 Researchers in Germany designed a large-scale quantum-processing architecture surpassing the tier of 1000 atomic qubits. By tiling multiple microlens-generated tweezer arrays, each operated by an independent laser source, they eliminated laser-power limitations in the number of allocatable qubits. With two separate arrays, they implemented combined 2D configurations of 3000 qubit sites with a mean number of 1167(46) single-atom quantum systems. The transfer of atoms between the two arrays effectively. Supercharging one array designated as the quantum processing unit with atoms from the secondary array significantly increased the number of qubits and the initial filling fraction. They […]
