    Happy to share Atlantic Quantum’s exciting results at the APS Global Physics Summit 2025! Our research scientist, Konstantin Nesterov, presented our latest work on high-fidelity readout of fluxonium qubits. Achieving high-fidelity qubit readout is a critical step toward building a fault-tolerant quantum computer. Building on his theoretical framework for optimizing fluxonium qubit readout, we successfully demonstrated state-of-the-art readout fidelity (99.89%!) with our millisecond-coherence fluxonium qubits. This achievement was made possible through our strong teamwork and expertise in the design, fabrication, and calibration of quantum processors. If you're at the March Meeting and want to learn more, connect with the Atlantic Quantum team: Bharath Kannan, Konstantin Nesterov, Ants Remm, Amr Osman, Jonas Bylander, Leon Ding, Simon Gustavsson, Will Oliver.

  • "Emerging technologies like artificial intelligence and quantum computing will define the future of national security, geopolitical power, and human civilization," newly confirmed CIA Director John Ratcliffe stated in his Senate hearing last month. Next week, our Co-Founder & CEO Bharath Kannan will speak at the "AI+ Compute & Connectivity Summit," hosted by the Special Competitive Studies Project - SCSP. This summit brings together innovators, policymakers, industry leaders, and academic experts to discuss how next-generation compute technologies can be harnessed to advance U.S. national security and promote economic growth. Fellow speakers include Ylli Bajraktari (SCSP), Keith Strier (AMD), Chris Miller (Tufts University), Yan Zheng (IQT (In-Q-Tel)), and more.

    Don’t miss our final quantum episode of the season! The race to build an error-correcting, utility-scale quantum computer is on, with Google’s Willow quantum chip making headlines for surpassing the quantum error correction threshold. But just as critical is scalability - how do we scale to millions of qubits without losing performance? Enter Atlantic Quantum, an Massachusetts Institute of Technology spinout from Will Oliver lab, spearheading the commercialization of Fluxonium qubits, which just set a world-record single-qubit fidelity of 99.998%, and pioneering integrated circuits for large-scale quantum computing. I sat down with Bharath Kannan, Atlantic Quantum’s CEO and a prime example of how deep-tech startups emerge from academic labs. We discussed his vision for shaping the future of quantum computing and what it will take to bring this technology to the world. Bonus: Bharath Kannan is a hardcore physics nerd and one of his biggest reasons for building a quantum computer is… well, let's just say it involves rewriting the rules of the universe ;) Tune in to find out! Atlantic Quantum is The Engine portfolio company based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Special thanks to Chloe Holzinger for all the wonderful help. Also, heartfelt appreciation to Asma Bensalem for always raising the bar! Link in Comments.

  • Quantum computers today don’t work. They error out too much, they're not designed to scale, and they're prohibitively expensive.   Atlantic Quantum was founded to address these challenges. Here’s how:   🤖 The Soul of a New Machine  At the heart of our solution is our fluxonium-based superconducting qubit architecture, which achieve 20X improved single-qubit gate fidelities and 10X improved two-qubit gate fidelities compared to competing state-of-the-art quantum processors.     ⚡️ The First Quantum Integrated Circuit We are now integrating our fluxonium qubits with cryogenic controllers into one modular chip stack to create the first integrated circuit for quantum compute. By moving the qubit controls inside of the dilution refrigerator, we’re solving the bottlenecks of incumbent architectures and enabling unprecedented scalability.   📊 Lower Costs, Greater Impact Our quantum integrated circuit means that the cost of scaling will be lithographically defined. With this approach, we’re not just building quantum computers—we’re enabling real-world adoption into HPC data centers and unlocking quantum's transformative potential across AI, cryptography, optimization, and simulation.   🚀 Starting Moore’s Law for Quantum Compute Without the breakthrough innovations described above, quantum computing will remain a niche technology. By addressing these challenges together, we can start a new Moore’s Law for the exponential growth of quantum computational power. Led by CEO & Co-Founder Bharath Kannan, we are taking a first principles approach to develop quantum processors that simultaneously achieve record-low errors, are purpose-built to scale, and are cost-effective enough to deliver economic value. Visit us: www.atlantic-quantum.com   Huge thank you to the Upstatement team for their collaboration, insights, design, and photography, especially Scott Dasse, Jim S., and Violet Pettie. Many thanks also to our lead investor Engine Ventures (Reed Sturtevant, Madeleine Laitz, PhD) for their counsel and support. Special shout out to Katherine Otway Londergan and Connor Blake for their contributions.   #MIT #QuantumComputing #Quantum #DefenseTech #DualUse

    🏆 We are thrilled to announce that our fluxonium qubits have achieved >99.997% single-qubit gate fidelities – a new world record!   This milestone, published in PRX Quantum and co-authored by David Rower, Leon Ding, Prof. William D. Oliver et al., was achieved at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology using two complementary protocols: 1) Circularly polarized driving with simultaneous charge and flux control, and 2) Commensurate pulses that regularize error contributions, requiring no additional calibration overhead.   💬 David Rower, #MIT PhD’24 and now Google Quantum AI researcher, reflected: “This project makes it clear that counter-rotating errors can be dealt with easily. This is a wonderful thing for low-frequency qubits such as fluxonium, which are looking more and more promising for quantum computing.”   💬 Leon Ding, Atlantic Quantum Co-Founder & Head of Calibration, noted: “Here, we’ve demonstrated a gate that is among the fastest and highest-fidelity across all superconducting qubits. Our experiments really show that fluxonium is a qubit that supports both interesting physical explorations and also absolutely delivers in terms of engineering performance.”   💬 Will Oliver, Atlantic Quantum Co-Founder & Senior Advisor, remarked: “With the recent announcement of Google’s Willow quantum chip that demonstrated quantum error correction beyond threshold for the first time, this is a timely result, as we have pushed performance even higher. Higher-performant qubits will lead to lower overhead requirements for implementing error correction.”   This research is a significant step toward realizing high-fidelity quantum gates essential for utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computing.    Read more in the MIT News article: https://lnkd.in/eQFdvw6h Access the full paper here: https://lnkd.in/ezyAB3s5   Congratulations to David, Leon, and the EQuS team for this achievement! 👏    #QuantumComputing #Quantum #Innovation
