New cryogenic quantum fridges designed to link hundreds of quantum chips.
Cooled to below 15 millikelvin, more than 180 times colder than deep space, the build out marks a step forward in the engineering required for future quantum computers.
Advances IBM’s quantum roadmap to deliver the world’s first fault-tolerant quantum computer in 2029.
YORKTOWN HEIGHTS, N.Y., Aug. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — IBM (NYSE: IBM) today announced it has successfully joined and cooled down two cryogenic modules into a single environment. The new architecture is designed to scale into the modular, shared, and ultra-cold system required to link hundreds of quantum chips into a more powerful quantum computer capable of solving large problems. Its deployment is a milestone on IBM’s path to delivering IBM Quantum Starling in 2029, which is expected to be the world’s first fault-tolerant quantum computer and will integrate advances across error correction, processor…
