Quantum record smashed as scientists build mammoth 6,000-qubit system — and it works at room temperature

Scientists have achieved a remarkable breakthrough in quantum computing by developing a new system that operates at room temperature and features an impressive 6,100 neutral atom qubits. This innovation, which involves splitting a laser beam into 12,000 tweezers, has set new records for coherence times, a critical factor for the stability and reliability of quantum systems. This advancement not only pushes the boundaries of quantum technology but also opens up new possibilities for practical applications in computing and beyond.
