PsiQuantum bets on photonic quantum computer with 100-cabinet design
PsiQuantum plans to build a fault-tolerant quantum computer using photons, housed in 100 stainless-steel cabinets cooled by liquid helium. The system aims to achieve a million qubits, far beyond current prototypes. The company has secured over $1 billion in funding for the project.
Meridian48 take
The photonic approach sidesteps some engineering hurdles of superconducting qubits, but scaling to a million qubits remains a monumental challenge with no clear timeline.
