Honeywell Trapped Ion Quantum Computer | NextBigFuture.com

Honeywell Quantum Solutions has demonstrated record-breaking high fidelity quantum operations on their trapped-ion qubits. It is a major step towards producing the world’s most powerful quantum computer. Honeywell targets an operational trapped ion quantum computer by the end of 2019. Currently the leading trapped ion quantum computer is by the startup IonQ. There are commercial quantum annealing systems from D-Wave Systems with 2000 qubits. There are superconducting quantum computers with 16-72 qubits from Google, IBM, Intel and Rigetti Systems. The quality of qubits, and their quantum operations, is described by a metric called fidelity. It is an important feature of
