Riverlane, a leader in quantum error correction technology, and Atlantic Quantum, known for their superconducting fluxonium-based qubit architecture, have announced a strategic partnership. This collaboration aims to advance quantum error correction techniques crucial for achieving practical quantum computing.
Quantum computers rely on qubits, which are susceptible to errors from their noisy environments. Quantum error correction (QEC) techniques, such as Riverlane’s ‘Deltaflow’ stack, mitigate these errors to enable reliable quantum operations. Atlantic Quantum’s fluxonium qubit architecture boasts exceptional error rates, exceeding 99.9% fidelity for two-qubit gates and 99.997% for single-qubit gates, setting new standards in quantum computing hardware.
Steve Brierley, CEO of Riverlane, emphasized the partnership’s goal to integrate Deltaflow with Atlantic Quantum’s advanced hardware, accelerating progress towards fault-tolerant quantum computing. Bharath Kannan, CEO of Atlantic Quantum, highlighted the necessity of QEC for sustained quantum computation, marking a pivotal step in their mission to scale quantum systems. The collaboration underscores a shared commitment to overcoming quantum computing challenges through innovative partnerships across the quantum technology stack.
