(ECNS) -- China's first independently developed superconducting quantum computer production line recently commenced upgrades, according to the Anhui Quantum Computing Engineering Research Center on Tuesday.
Wukong, a 72-qubit indigenous super conducting quantum chip produced by China's first superconducting quantum computer production line, has been running smoothly on China's superconducting quantum computer "Origin Wukong" for nine months, said Jia Zhilong, deputy director of the Center's Quantum Computing Chip Provincial Key Laboratory.
At present, the scientific research team is striving to develop a new generation of superconducting quantum chips with better performance, higher bit number and stronger stability.
The current assembly hall can accommodate up to five superconducting quantum computers being assembled simultaneously. After expansion, it will be able to meet the demand for assembling at least eight complete superconducting quantum computers at once
"Origin Wukong," China's third-generation superconducting quantum computer, went into operation on Jan. 6, 2024, and has completed 270,000 quantum computing tasks from 133 countries and regions worldwide, marking the first large-scale and long-term operation of China's quantum computing power on the world stage.
