IBM releases 1,000+ qubit processor, roadmap to error correction
Company now expects useful error-corrected qubits by the end of the decade.




Insider Brief
- SAXON Q announced commercial availability of its SXQ128 and SXQ512 diamond-based NV-center quantum computing systems, which operate at room temperature without cryogenic cooling or vacuum infrastructure.
- The systems use SAXON Q’s diamond manufacturing and multi-core architecture to support quantum workloads including chemistry simulations, optimization, and quantum machine learning.
- The company says its NV-center platform is designed for scalable quantum computing deployments, with current systems available for order and future expansion toward larger architectures.
SAXON Q, a pioneer in diamond-based nitrogen-vacancy (NV) quantum computing, today announces the commercial availability of the 128-qubit SXQ128 and 512-qubit SXQ512 — the first diamond-based NV-center quantum computers to ever exceed 10 qubits.
Two previous generation SAXON Q systems are currently deployed and in active use at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and Fraunhofer IWU, where researchers access them on premises or via cloud API.
