D-Wave Demonstrates 99.9% Fidelity Entangling Gate for Dual-Rail Qubits Advancing Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computing

D-Wave Quantum Inc. has published peer-reviewed research in Nature demonstrating a high-fidelity two-qubit entangling gate for its superconducting dual-rail architecture. The gate achieves approximately 99.9% fidelity in about 500 nanoseconds while maintaining the experimentally observed dual-rail error hierarchy. Simulations suggest an error-reduction factor approaching 10 under favorable assumptions, with potential to reduce physical qubit overhead. The results reinforce D-Wave’s dual-platform roadmap targeting a 100-logical-qubit system by 2032.

Israel Issues Project Nexus Tender to Establish National Quantum Computing Platform

Israel’s National AI Directorate and Finance Ministry have launched Project Nexus, a tender to establish a national “Blue and White” quantum computing platform as an early implementation step of the country’s national AI strategy. The platform is intended to support the diverse quantum technologies existing in Israel while aiming to ensure a domestically produced system. Parallel Requests for Information address a national Physical AI simulation and real-world testing environment and pathways to sovereignty in foundational AI models. The moves follow Government Decision 4255 and come alongside a separate Israel Innovation Authority NIS 100 million multi-technology quantum R&D infrastructure call.
