Quantum Leap: China's 504-Qubit Chip Narrows the US Gap
Domestically-developed "Xiaohong" chip validates massive measurement system, opens door for global collaboration.
China's Quantum Innovation Institute, a research institution under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has achieved a significant milestone by delivering a revolutionary 504-qubit superconducting quantum computing chip named "Xiaohong" to QuantumCTek, a spinoff company from the University of Science & Technology of China. This chip, designed to validate QuantumCTek's domestically developed thousand-qubit measurement and control system, has not only set a new record for the number of superconducting quantum bits in China but also holds immense potential for advancing the field of quantum computing. The Quantum Innovation Institute plans to make this chip and other quantum computing advancements accessible to global users through the "Tianyan" quantum computing cloud platform, which is operated by China Telecom Quantum Group.
