QUICKBITS
Quantum tech: a chat with OQC’s Quantum Engineers
- OQC pioneers Quantum Computing as a Service (QCaaS), aiming to revolutionize industries through quantum computing applications.
- The unique 3D architecture of OQC’s processor, coupled with the Proteox dilution refrigerator, enables scalability and performance enhancements.
In a recent interview with OQC, Senior Quantum Engineer Connor Shelly and Lead Quantum R&D, Brian Vlastakis shed light on the company’s advancements in quantum computing and their collaboration with Oxford Instruments NanoScience to enhance their Proteox dilution refrigerator.
The key issue with all superconducting quantum computer implementations is the scalability to large numbers of qubits. The Proteox provides a high-density wiring solution which allows us to scale up the number of qubits in our quantum computer.
Connor Shelly, Senior Quantum Engineer
Brian and Connor touch on our unique 3D architecture, which offers scalability and performance advantages over traditional superconducting qubit technologies. This breakthrough allows for easier scaling of large qubit arrays while maintaining control and quality, marking a significant step forward in practical quantum computation.
Co-development between hardware companies and customers will lead to a large number of custom quantum computing platforms purpose-built for particular – and hopefully practical – applications.
Brian Vlastakis, Lead Quantum R&D
Our collaboration with Oxford Instruments NanoScience opens doors to cutting-edge low-temperature platforms like Proteox, enabling operations at temperatures below 10 mK, which is critical for quantum computing. With our scalable quantum processor and the versatile Proteox refrigerator, our customers can expect enhanced capabilities and flexibility in adapting quantum computing solutions to their specific needs.
