PRESS RELEASE — XeedQ, a global frontrunner in practical quantum computing, has delivered its state-of-the-art “Baby Diamond” quantum computer to Goethe University in Germany. The partnership underscores a shared commitment to fostering a new wave of research and academic exploration in quantum mechanics and computation.
The “Baby Diamond” is an XQ1 system from XeedQ’s XQ series. A robust 5-qubit device, the quantum computer is made using nitrogen-vacancy centers in synthetic diamond, enabling it to operate efficiently at room temperature. The device eliminates the need for complex, high-cost cryogenic cooling systems, ensuring energy efficiency and user-friendly operation without compromising computational power. Its durable design makes it ideal for demanding environments, while its potential scalability provides a pathway for future advancements, allowing for upgrades as technology evolves.
Positioned within Goethe University’s historic Bockenheim Campus, known for being the site of the groundbreaking Stern-Gerlach experiment, the first discovery of spin. The XQ1 system is set to become a vital resource for researchers and students, inspiring further exploration and learning in quantum computing. During the recent Digital-Gipfel 2024 event, the Modular Supercomputing and Quantum Computing (MSQC) group at Goethe University Frankfurt am Main presented a live demonstration of the XQ1, showcasing its capabilities and practical applications to visitors, which included guided tours of the historic site.
Dr. Gopalakrishnan Balasubramanian, CEO of XeedQ, stated, “Delivering ‘Baby Diamond’ to Goethe University is a major step in our vision to democratize quantum computing. We’re breaking down technological barriers to make quantum solutions accessible and impactful for a diverse range of industries and applications. I am particularly pleased that this system will be utilized for educational purposes and research, empowering the next generation of quantum scientists and engineers.”
This collaboration reinforces XeedQ’s commitment to bridging the gap between theoretical quantum science and real-world applicability, encouraging innovation and knowledge-sharing within the global quantum community. By providing practical and accessible quantum solutions, XeedQ aligns with Goethe University’s goals, supporting academic and technological advancements through accessible quantum resources. This delivery marks just the beginning of XeedQ’s long-term goal to integrate quantum technologies across various sectors, setting the stage for future industry collaborations and educational programs.
