Russian Researchers Demonstrate 72-Qubit Neutral-Atom Quantum Computing Prototype

QUANTUM COMPUTING

Researchers at Lomonosov Moscow State University have developed a 72-qubit quantum computer using neutral rubidium atoms. This system is part of a national program to enhance quantum capabilities in Russia and introduces a three-zone architecture for computation, storage, and readout.

The prototype achieved a two-qubit gate accuracy of approximately 94%. The milestone indicates a shift towards neutral-atom platforms, which offer potential scalability and simpler fabrication compared to traditional methods. The results have yet to be peer-reviewed.
