The third generation of SAXON Q's mobile quantum computers is here. The QC2026 DUAL CORE is being unveiled this week at Hannover Messe. The quantum computer operates with two quantum processors computing in parallel and 5 qubits per processor core. With the new generation, SAXON Q has once again noticeably improved the mobile system's speed and performance.
With dual-core technology, SAXON Q is taking a decisive step further: two processor cores compute together within a single system, can be controlled independently, and can therefore execute parallel operations. This demonstrates that SAXON Q's quantum processors can potentially be expanded into multi-core systems with any number of cores. In addition, a new readout technology has made the quantum computer significantly faster.
Co-founder and managing director Prof. Marius Grundmann: "In the race for the first quantum computer that is broadly usable across industry, scaling is the decisive factor. Our qubits in diamond have already been running stably in every environment for years. In the new generation, we have not only significantly increased computing power, but also once again significantly improved qubit accuracy and the stability of the entire system. Quantum computing is thus arriving in reality — with us, also via the cloud."
Managing director Dr. Frank Schlichting: "The fact alone that, in the fifth year of our company's history, we are already unveiling the third generation of quantum computers is an enormous achievement by our team. We are not talking about theory here, or devices that only work in a perfect laboratory environment. We are showing that this technology will soon deliver the decisive advantage in energy supply, medical research, artificial intelligence, and many other industries. With the dual-core system, the path to a quantum computer on a chip — and thus to broad industrial application — has become considerably shorter."
