Quantum Art demonstrates 200-ion linear chain, validating scalability toward 1,000-qubit systems

Quantum Art/Perspective

Quantum Art demonstrated a stable 200-ion linear chain spaced at 5-micron intervals, representing the longest fully controlled trapped-ion chain to date. The achievement validated trap engineering and cryogenic control techniques needed to overcome zig-zag instabilities and is a key milestone toward the company's 1,000-qubit Perspective system planned for 2027.

• 200-ion chain at 5-micron spacing, the longest stable trapped-ion chain demonstrated to date
• Most trapped-ion systems operate at 30-50 ions; this represents a 4-6x increase
• Validates trap-chip engineering and cryogenic control for future 1,000-ion cores
• Essential milestone toward 1,000-qubit system targeting 2027 launch
• Demonstrates scalability toward 1M-qubit system roadmap by 2033
