To enhance the performance of quantum computers, how to connect numerous quantum chips and maintain them in a cryogenic state is just as important a challenge as increasing the number of qubits. IBM has taken a step closer to building large-scale quantum computers by demonstrating a modular cooling structure capable of linking multiple quantum chips into a single system. IBM announced on the 19th that it succeeded in cooling by connecting two cr…

IBM has managed to cool its quantum system below 15 millikelvin, equivalent to about 273,135 degrees Celsius below zero and very close to absolute zero (-273,15 degrees), in a breakthrough with which it intends to develop in 2029 the world’s first fault-tolerant quantum computer. The IBM input cools its quantum system almost to absolute zero to connect hundreds of chips was first published in Digital Process.
