Quantum Machines reported a 99.5% accuracy for two-qubit operations on Rigetti's Novera processor, demonstrating its potential in quantum computing.
Quantum Machines has reported a remarkable median accuracy of 99.5% for two-qubit operations on Rigetti's Novera, a commercial nine-qubit superconducting processor, utilizing its proprietary control system.
This impressive performance was attained through the OPX1000 platform and QUAlibrate software, completing full calibration over a span of 10 days.
Additionally, single-qubit operations reached a median accuracy of 99.93%, demonstrating high precision across all nine qubits and their 11 interconnections.
Quantum Machines highlighted that these results meet the specifications set by Rigetti for the Novera processor, showcasing that commercial processors can achieve these standards without being dependent on the manufacturer's proprietary systems.
Rigetti further confirmed that Novera can sustain its high accuracy when paired with third-party control systems and software.
Novera is tailored for local deployment and shares its architecture with Rigetti's larger superconducting systems, with notable users including Fermilab, Montana State University, and Horizon Quantum.
