Pasqal Demonstrates On-Chip Atom Trapping with Photonic Integrated Circuit Toward Fault-Tolerant Scale

Pasqal has demonstrated trapping of individual rubidium atoms using laser light delivered and controlled by a photonic integrated circuit, which the company describes as a first for neutral-atom systems. The four independently addressable traps achieved atom lifetimes in line with existing bulk-optics platforms. Pasqal estimates the architecture can shrink optical hardware by up to 50 times en route to systems exceeding 10,000 atoms and 100 logical qubits.

Infleqtion Scores DOE Wins, Drives Fault-Tolerant Quantum and Space Ambitions

Infleqtion announced plans to deliver its Sqale fault-tolerant neutral-atom quantum computer targeting more than 50 logical qubits to the Illinois Quantum & Microelectronics Park in 2027. The system integrates NVIDIA NVQLink and will be accessible via Superstaq through the National Quantum Algorithm Center. Concurrently, the company secured three Phase I U.S. Department of Energy Genesis Mission projects with Argonne, Brookhaven, and Lawrence Livermore national laboratories focused on nuclear applications, deployable atomic sensing, and plasma dynamics simulation. Infleqtion also advanced America’s Quantum Space Initiative with partners including Voyager Technologies, Armada, Monarch Quantum, and the University of Colorado Boulder to accelerate quantum-enabled space infrastructure.
