Duke-Led Team Secures $1 Million NSF Grant to Identify Technical Challenges and Potential Solutions for a 256-Qubit Trapped Ion Quantum Computer

Researchers at the Duke Quantum Center are spearheading an effort to develop a 256-qubit quantum computer, a system that could significantly outperform classical computers in scientific applications. The project, named Quantum Advantage-Class Trapped Ion system (QACTI), is funded by a one-year, $1 million grant from the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) National Quantum Virtual Laboratory (NQVL) […]
