By 2032, the company plans to create a fault-tolerant quantum computer with 100 logical qubits.<\/p>\n<p>According to the press release, the system is expected to perform over 1 million operations and support initial applications in quantum chemistry and AI.<\/p>\n<p>Intermediate steps in D-Wave&#8217;s plan include:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>2026: A system with 17 physical qubits and a logical error rate half that of classical systems;<\/li>\n<li>2027: A 49-qubit system with an anticipated 20-fold reduction in errors;<\/li>\n<li>2028: A 181-qubit system with an anticipated 2000-fold reduction in errors;<\/li>\n<li>2030: A system with 10 logical qubits designed for initial fault-tolerant algorithms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The company&#8217;s approach is based on a superconducting dual-rail qubit architecture, enabling quantum error correction cycles 100-1000 times faster than systems based on neutral atoms or trapped ions.<\/p>\n<p>The company claims that fault detection is directly integrated into the qubits, allowing for the identification of about 90% of computational inaccuracies at the initial level. This solution significantly reduces the number of physical qubits needed for correction.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;The future of commercial gate-model quantum computing will be defined not just by the number of physical qubits, but by the ability to reliably perform large-scale computations for real-world applications. While much of the industry focuses on scaling physical qubits, D-Wave employs a differentiated approach focused on reducing hardware-level errors,&#8221; the company noted.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>D-Wave also announced achieving 99.9% accuracy for two-qubit operations, with one physical error occurring per 1000 operations.<\/p>\n<p>The company highlighted the Lambda metric, which describes how quickly error rates decrease with added correction. D-Wave estimates the industry average at about 2, while their plan targets 10.<\/p>\n<p>In May, experts <a href=\"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/news\/experts-question-d-waves-claims-of-quantum-supremacy\">questioned<\/a> D-Wave&#8217;s claims of quantum supremacy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>D-Wave Quantum unveiled its roadmap for the phased development of quantum systems, aiming for a fault-tolerant quantum computer with 100 logical qubits by 2032.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":97832,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"select":"1","news_style_id":"1","cryptorium_level":"","_short_excerpt_text":"D-Wave Quantum plans a fault-tolerant quantum computer by 2032.","creation_source":"","_metatest_mainpost_news_update":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[575,1360],"class_list":["post-97831","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-and-analysis","tag-quantum-computers","tag-quantum-computing"],"aioseo_notices":[],"amp_enabled":true,"views":"13","promo_type":"1","layout_type":"1","short_excerpt":"D-Wave Quantum plans a fault-tolerant quantum computer by 2032.","is_update":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97831","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=97831"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97831\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":97833,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97831\/revisions\/97833"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/97832"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=97831"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=97831"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=97831"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
