The first IBM quantum computer on German soil was installed within the Baden-Württemberg Competence Center for Quantum Computing and is available to industrial companies, SMEs, start-ups, and academic institutions for application-related use.

The IBM Q System One at the Ehningen site enables a wide range of research topics from essential algorithms, software development and the design of elementary logic operations to the control of the quantum processor in the actual computing process.

 

Technical data:

  • 27 superconducting qubits
  • Quantum volume of 32
  • Coherence time ≈ 100 μs
  • Single qubit gate error ≈ 0.05%
  • 2 qubit gate error ≈ 1%
  • Operation time 2 qubit gate ≈ 500 ns for CNOT

The FMD member institute Fraunhofer IAF, in cooperation with the Fraunhofer IAO in Stuttgart, is responsible for coordinating the Baden-Württemberg Competence Center for Quantum Computing as well as training courses for companies.
