Infineon and ZuriQ expand partnership to develop scalable trapped-ion quantum chips

eeNews Europe reports that Infineon and Swiss startup ZuriQ are expanding their partnership to develop scalable trapped-ion quantum chips. After demonstrating a 3×3 array of nine individually controlled ions, the companies are working toward larger qubit arrays. The effort pairs ZuriQ’s ion-trap architecture with Infineon’s semiconductor manufacturing expertise, with the aim of bringing quantum computing closer to practical, commercial use.
