In a study published today in Nature, hardware developer HRL Laboratories—jointly owned by Boeing and General Motors—demonstrated an 18-qubit silicon spin quantum processing unit (QPU) that operates autonomously without real-time direction from room-temperature electronics. The integrated architecture replaces traditional racks of external control instruments with a custom cryogenic CMOS control chip operating at 4 K [...]
