British startup Quantum Motion has achieved a major breakthrough in quantum computing by developing the first complete quantum computer made from silicon technology, the same technology found in smartphones and laptops.

The London-based company unveiled the system at the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) in the UK. It is the first quantum computer built using the standard CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) process used to make conventional computer chips.

Silicon architecture for mass production<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A key element is the development of cryoelectronics, which connects quantum bits (qubits) to control circuits at extremely low temperatures. This enables significant scalability of quantum processors. \u201cThis is a silicon moment for quantum computing,\u201d said CEO James Palles-Dimmock. \u201cWe have demonstrated that it is possible to build a reliable quantum computer with mass-produced technology.\u201d

Modular design for data centers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The system includes quantum processing units (QPUs), a user interface, and a control stack that supports industrial frameworks such as Qiskit and Cirq. It occupies only three 19-inch wide server racks, which house the cooling system and control electronics. This is ideal for data centers.

NQCC Director Michael Cuthbert emphasized that the modular design allows for upgrades to larger QPUs without changing the physical size of the system. \u201cWe are excited to begin testing and seeing how real-world applications will adapt to this silicon architecture,\u201d he said.

Industrial production of qubits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike other approaches, Quantum Motion uses industrial 300mm chip fabrication processes in commercial qubit factories. The architecture is designed to scale to millions of qubits, paving the way for commercially viable quantum computing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith the delivery of this system, we are on track to bring usable quantum computers to market this decade,\u201d added President Hugo Saleh.

The QPU is based on a slab architecture that combines computation, read, and control in a dense, repeatable pattern. This effectively allows for future expansion without increasing the physical size of the system.<\/p>\n
