We review in this video the Dual-rail Cavity Qubit (DRQ), the physical qubit and building block in Quantum Circuits’ QPUs. It is the cornerstone of our Correct first, then scale philosophy.
There are many powerful facets to a DRQ, from its composite design that enables built-in error detection, to the unique confluence of high performance and throughput they enable, to the upgraded library of features they provide users for an enhanced quantum programming experience.
But the DRQ isn’t just a breakthrough qubit. It allows us to hasten the roadmap to fault tolerance using an approach to error correction with less overhead and more performance. We adapt well-known correction techniques in the industry to incorporate error detection capability, laying out a roadmap to useful systems that can actually be deployed, operated and deliver commercial success. No more QPUs the size of a football field. That’s impractical. We’re designing for systems that are leaner and deliver scale efficiently. That’s the power of the Quantum Circuits DRQ.
